the only way to save our nation, and yes, to save yourselves, is let go of whiteness and the vision of American history it supports.
white or black identity is nothing without the people and forces that make it true. white and black folks are bound together, even when we breathe very different meanings into race.
whiteness is slick and endlessly inventive. it is most effective when it makes itself invisible, when it appears neutral, human, American
your whiteness is slapdash, pieced together from the European identities at hand.
you dont get whiteness from your genes. it is a social inheritance that is passed on to you as a member of a particular group.
