White on White/Black on Black is a unique contribution to the
philosophy of race. The book explores how fourteen philosophers,
seven white and seven black, philosophically understand the
dynamics of the process of racialization. Combined, the
contributions demonstrate different and similar conceptual
trajectories of raced identities that emerge from within and across
the racial divide. Each of the fourteen philosophers, who share a
textual space of exploration, name blackness/whiteness, revealing
significant political, cultural, and existential aspects of what it
means to be black/white. Through the power of naming and theorizing
whiteness and blackness, White on White/Black on Black dares to
bring clarity and complexity to our understanding of race identity.
The Philosopher Queen is a collection of essays and monologues
addressing deep questions about gender, race, science, and global
politics, ideal for both students and lay readers. Weaving together
philosophical analysis and narrative, Cuomo develops positions that
resonate in a world where all truths are partial, yet the search
for truth is more important than ever. Scholarly, humorous, and
brazenly feminist, these inviting essays encourage us to
reinvestigate war, sex, justice, and wholeness. They acknowledge
the complexity of reality while holding fast to the promise of
common values, and in the face of cynicism and violence they
present a conception of ethics that aims toward flourishing.
