In 1988, Peggy McIntosh published her groundbreaking essay 'White Privilege and Male Privilege, ' an examination of white privilege and its role in perpetuating racism. Twenty years later, these seven essays reveal problems that persist even in systems that are ostensibly trying to address problems of inequality. Beginning with a foreword by McIntosh on our society's resistance to confronting privilege, this text then delves into a variety of fields. In the first section, on higher education, Simona Hill, Lucien Winegar, Juanita Johnson-Bailey and Ronald Cervero contribute two essays examining racism in the academy, while Donna Axel explores the stigma in law school alternative application processes. The next section interrogates privilege and its effects on females' choices, with Kyla Bender-Baird questioning global contraception policies and Mary Carney giving a historical overview to contextualize persistent gender inequities in computer technology, Media studies and stereotypes are considered in the final section, in which Janice Stapley analyzes children's birthday cards for gender bias and Ellen Miller critiques male dance films. This text would be useful for social science and humanities scholars of all types with its explorations of the continuing ramifications of race, gender, class, and their intersections. 650 0 $a Social justice $z United States. 650 0 $a Social status $z United States. 650 0 $a Sexism $z United States. 650 0 $a Racism $z United States. 650 0 $a Discrimination in education $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Social conditions $y 1980-2020. 650 7 $a Discrimination in education. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00895037 650 7 $a Racism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086616 650 7 $a Sexism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114686 650 7 $a Social conditions $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 650 7 $a Social justice. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122603 650 7 $a Social status. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01123359 651 7 $a United States $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 650 07 $a Rassendiskriminierung. $2 swd 650 07 $a Ausbildung. $2 swd 650 07 $a Rassenbeziehung. $2 swd 651 7 $a USA. $2 swd 648 7 $a Since 1980 $2 fast 700 1 $a Weekes, Karen, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214023950.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=52E1E60472D911EDA0B05B7C49ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b IOWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
