The field of communication offers the study of whiteness a focus on
discourse which directs its attention to the everyday experiences
of whiteness through regimes of truth, embodied acts, and the
deconstruction of mediated texts. This book takes an intersectional
approach to whiteness studies, researching whiteness through
rhetorical analysis, qualitative research, performance studies, and
interpretive research. More specifically the chapters deconstruct
the communicative power of whiteness in the context of the United
States, but with discussion of the implications of this power
internationally, by taking on relevant and current topics such as
terrorism, post-colonial challenges, white fragility at the
national level, the emergence of colorblind discourse as a
pro-white discursive strategy, the relationship of people of color
with and through whiteness, as well as multifaceted identities that
intersect with whiteness, including religion, masculinity and
femininity, social class, ability, and sexuality.
