Interweaving academic theory, (auto)ethnography, and memoir-styled
narrative, Christopher M. Driscoll explores what the "white devil"
trope means for understanding and responding to tensions emerging
from toxic white masculinity. The book provides a historical and
philosophical account of the "white devil" as it appears in the
stories and myths of various black religious and philosophical
traditions, particularly as these traditions are expressed through
the contemporary cultural expression of hip-hop. Driscoll argues
that the trope of the white devil emerges from a self-hatred in
many white men that is concealed (and revealed) through various
defence mechanisms - principally, anger - and the book provides
rich ground to discuss the relationship between perceptions of self
(i.e. who we are), emotional regulation, and our behaviour towards
others (i.e. how we act).
