Reviews

It feels refreshing to read a book where white authors seem as committed to antiracist education as those who suffer directly from the brutalities of racial violence. It is refreshing not because these authors are in any ways more special than others, but because, as this book suggests, they understand how underwhelming Whites have been on questions of racism and their consequences.--David E. Kirkland, executive director of NYU Metropolitan Center for Research on Equity and the Transformation of Schools and associate professor of English and Urban Education McManimon, Casey, and Berchini have produced a wonderfully original and very powerful set of essays that push Critical Whiteness Studies forward on multiple levels, ranging from the theoretical to the highly personal. As a scholar, I appreciate the messy complexity Whiteness at the Table brings to a structural analysis of white supremacy. As a white person engaged in antiracist work, I resonate with the quandaries and tensions the authors name and take seriously. I highly recommend this thoughtful and brave volume.--Christine Sleeter, professor emerita, California State University, Monterey Bay This book documents more than a decade of conceptual-empirical work on whiteness and White identity studies carried out by the Midwest Critical Whiteness Collective. Importantly, the Collective has consistently advanced what Tim Lensmire and I began calling second-wave whiteness or White identity studies back in 2010. In times when the salience of race and racialized understandings take on new meanings in the US and elsewhere with the return of openly racist identities along with both new race-visible and race-evasive meanings, this edited volume places the reader simultaneously within the most historicized and the most up-to-date work in existence on whiteness and White identities.--James C. Jupp, professor and chair, department of Teaching and Learning, University of Texas Rio Grande Valley
