Two-Faced Racism: Whites in the Backstage and Frontstage

This book examines the racial attitudes and behaviours exhibited by whites in private settings, providing insight into how racism operates behind closed doors. By analysing 626 journals of racial events kept by white college students at twenty-eight colleges in the United States, the authors shed light on the ways in which racism is perpetuated among friends, family, and other whites.

The study offers a unique perspective on the complexities of racism, highlighting the need for greater understanding of how racist attitudes are formed and maintained. This book provides a thought-provoking exploration of a crucial aspect of racial dynamics in the United States.
