Seeing White: An Introduction to White Privilege and Race is an interdisciplinary, supplemental textbook for undergraduate students that challenges students to see race as everyone's issue. By beginning with an understanding of privilege and power, the text engages all students as raced human beings, thus better preparing students to explore discrimination. Drawing on sociology, psychology, history, and economics, it provides an introduction to the concepts of white privilege and social power while helping to break down some of the resistance students feel in discussing race. Seeing White makes issues of race accessible and challenges all students to think critically.

Industry Reviews

While everyday conversations about race amount to conversations about people of color, where race is treated as something that only people of color “have,” white is also a racial category, and reluctance to name and examine it as such has served to maintain racial inequality. Seeing White, in a true interdisciplinary fashion, makes white cultural assumptions and privilege visible by connecting theory and findings from sociology, psychology, history, and economics. Written in an accessible language with multiple compelling stories and examples, the book will challenge students to reexamine their constructed notions of the nature and consequences of race and whiteness.
