Description
White Minds: Everyday Performance, Violence and Resistance by Guilaine Kinouani explores how 'whiteness' is perpetuated through power, violence, and complex social processes. This book examines the psychological factors involved in maintaining unequal social configurations and sheds light on everyday race dynamics, inequality, and racial violence. Kinouani argues that whiteness is a historically and socially located psychosocial phenomenon, intersecting with macro structures to produce profound implications for life chances and group identity. By cutting through the complexities of 'whiteness', this book provides valuable insights for those seeking to understand its impact and become more effective anti-racists. This book offers a crucial analysis of the role of psychological functioning in maintaining unequal social configurations, making it an essential read for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of race and racism.
