Racism Without Racists examines in detail how Whites talk, think,
and account for the existence of racial inequality. The main
argument of the book is that color-blind racism, a new racial
ideology that emerged in the post-Civil Rights era, has emerged as
the fountain of frames, stylistic components, and racial stories
Whites rely on to articulate their views on racial affairs. Relying
on systematically-gathered interview data, Bonilla-Silva not only
de constructs the main elements of this ideology, but also explains
how the ways most Whites live their lives (the "white habitus") is
central to the reproduction of this ideology, why a specific
segment of the White community is more racially progressive, and
accounts for how Blacks are effected by the ideology. In this
edition, the author has added a very didactic chapter discussing
what makes "systemic racism" systemic and another examining how
color-blind racism framed many issues during the pandemic.
The standoff at Cliven Bundy's ranch, the rise of white identity
activists on college campuses, and the viral growth of white
nationalist videos on YouTube vividly illustrate the resurgence of
white supremacy and overt racism in the United States. White
resistance to racial equality can be subtle as well-like art
museums that enforce their boundaries as elite white spaces, "right
on crime" policies that impose new modes of surveillance and
punishment for people of color, and environmental groups whose work
reinforces settler colonial norms. In this incisive volume,
twenty-four leading sociologists assess contemporary shifts in
white attitudes about racial justice in the US. Using case studies,
they investigate the entrenchment of white privilege in
institutions, new twists in anti-equality ideologies, and
"whitelash" in the actions of social movements. Their examinations
of new manifestations of racist aggression help make sense of the
larger forces that underpin enduring racial inequalities and how
they reinvent themselves for each new generation.

White Logic, White Methods shows the ways that a reigning white
ideological methodology has poisoned almost all aspects of social
science research. The only way to remedy these prevailing
inequalities is for the complete overhaul of current methods, and a
movement towards multicultural and pluralist approaches to what we
know, think, and question. With an assemblage of leading scholars,
this collection explores the possibilities and necessary dethroning
of current social research practices.
What does it mean to be white? This remains the question at large in the continued effort to examine how white racial identity is constructed and how systems of white privilege operate in everyday life. White Out brings together the original work of leading scholars across the disciplines of sociology, philosophy, history and anthropology to give readers an important and cutting-edge study of "whiteness". This landmark collection moves beyond the personal narratives and surface discussions that have dominated the first generation of whiteness studies and brings discussion towards an actual structural analysis of racism. The essays cover such topics as the philosophy of whiteness; the belief in color blindness; the effects of white privilege; and the possibility for anti-racism. Collected together, these essays provide both a critical analysis and a path for future directions for the field.
The deeply entrenched patterns of racial inequality in the United
States simply do not square with the liberal notion of a
nation-state of equal citizens. Uncovering the false promise of
liberalism, "State of White Supremacy" reveals race to be a
fundamental, if flexible, ruling logic that perpetually generates
and legitimates racial hierarchy and privilege.
Racial domination and violence in the United States are indelibly
marked by its origin and ongoing development as an empire-state.
The widespread misrecognition of the United States as a liberal
nation-state hinges on the twin conditions of its approximation for
the white majority and its impossibility for their racial others.
The essays in this book incisively probe and critique the U.S.
racial state through a broad range of topics, including
citizenship, education, empire, gender, genocide, geography,
incarceration, Islamophobia, migration and border enforcement,
violence, and welfare.
