Witnessing Whiteness invites readers to consider their relationship to whiteness, the lingering shadows of racism, and the value of cultivating a self-reflective practice related to racial identity. The book includes personal testimony from well-respected cultural workers across race, such as Luis Rodriguez (author of Always Running), to offer dialogue not found anywhere else that illustrates how whiteness embeds itself in our psyche, lingers through continued social conditioning, and affects cross-race interactions as well as our ability to dismantle systems that uphold white dominance and oppression. In the midst of confusing and often contradictory messages, this new edition explains why developing an anti-racist white identity is an important part of cultivating an effective antiracist practice and is a necessary part of subverting the weaponizing of white identity cultivated by the far right.
