This book exposes its pervasive global reach and creates a new space for discourse on worldwide racial equality. In mid-2020, during the protests in the United States after the murder of George Floyd, over one hundred other countries held solidarity protests. These demonstrations often decried racial injustice and structural discrimination in their own societies. But no books have been written for a general audience describing the insidious role of white supremacy around the world. Chandran Nair argues that white privilege is the best way to understand how oppression and dominance by Western cultures operates. Touching on history, business, environment, entertainment, media fashion, education, and more, he analyzes how it has shaped, repressed, and destroyed local cultures to seek and preserve white economic power. Nair identifies white privilege as the driving force behind globalization, being constantly upheld and reproduced by a global superstructure that perpetuates widespread white economic and military dominance. This book provides a middle ground between brief media mentions and the dense rhetoric of racial politics so readers can develop a new worldview around dismantling white privilege at the global scale"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a White people. 650 0 $a Social status. 650 0 $a Race $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Race $x Economic aspects. 650 0 $a Racism. 650 7 $a Race $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086449 650 7 $a Racism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086616 650 7 $a Social status. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01123359 650 7 $a Whites. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01174816 776 08 $i Online version: $a Nair, Chandran. $t Dismantling global white privilege $b First edition. $d Oakland, CA : Berrett-Koehler Publishers, Inc., [2022] $z 9781523000012 $w (DLC) 2021033452 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117024651.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DC40C58EEE0211ECABFB385646ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
