The cinematic trope of the white savior film-think of Sandra Bullock in The Blind Side, Kevin Costner in Dances with Wolves, or Tom Cruise in The Last Samurai--features messianic characters in unfamiliar or hostile settings discovering something about themselves and their culture in the process of saving members of other races from terrible fates.
In The White Savior Film, Matthew Hughey provides a cogent, multipronged analysis of this subgenre of films to investigate the underpinnings of the Hollywood-constructed images of idealized (and often...

White Bound: Nationalists, Antiracists, and the Shared Meanings of Race
ISBN: 9780804776943 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Discussions of race are inevitably fraught with tension, both in opinion and positioning. Too frequently, debates are framed as clear points of opposition--us versus them. And when considering white racial identity, a split between progressive movements and a neoconservative backlash is all too frequently assumed. Taken at face value, it would seem that whites are splintering into antagonistic groups, with differing worldviews, values, and ideological stances. White Bound investigates these dividing lines, questioning the very notion of a fracturing whiteness, and in so...

Race and Ethnicity in Secret and Exclusive Social Orders: Blood and Shadow

Secret and private organizations, in the form of Greek-letter organizations, mutual aid societies, and civic orders, together possess a storied and often-romanticized place in popular culture. While much has been made of these groups glamorous origins and influence such as the Freemasons genesis in King Solomon s temple or the belief in the Illuminati s control of modern geo-politics few have explicitly examined the role of race and ethnicity in organizing and perpetuating these cloistered orders. This volume directly addresses the inattention paid to the salience of race in secret...

The Wrongs of the Right: Language, Race, and the Republican Party in the Age of Obama
ISBN: 9780814760543 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In The Wrongs of the Right, Matthew W. Hughey and Gregory S. Parks set postracial claims into relief against a background of pre- and post-election racial animus directed at President Obama, his administration, and African Americans. They show how the political Right deploys racial fears, coded language and implicit bias to express and build opposition to the Obama administration. Racial meanings are reservoirs rich in political currency, and the race card remains a potent resource for othering the first black president in a context rife with Nativism, xenophobia, white racial...

The Obamas and a (Post) Racial America?
ISBN: 9780199735204 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The United States has taken a long and winding road to racial equality, especially as it pertains to relations between blacks and whites. On November 4, 2008, when Barack Hussein Obama was elected as the forty-fourth President of the United States and first black person to occupy the highest office in the land, many wondered whether that road had finally come to an end. Do we now live in a post-racial nation? According to this book's contributors, a more nuanced and contemporary analysis and measurement of racial attitudes undercuts this assumption. They contend that despite the election...
