Against White Interiority

A Racial Critique of Therapeutic Reason

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book critiques the emerging racial sensibility that has gained traction after George Floyd's death, highlighting how it encourages white individuals to confront their internalized emotions and conflicts through therapeutic discourse. It argues that this approach, while seemingly progressive, ultimately maintains existing racial biases and reproduces the racism it seeks to dismantle. By employing Foucault's theories and exploring concepts of shame, the author proposes alternative perspectives for envisioning genuine white anti-racist engagement.
