Abstract

How does white supremacy look in 2009? What are the challenges and what are the opportunities we face in a time when some people are saying that if a black man can be elected president we have become a postracial society? How do we encourage white people to take responsibility for challenging specific forms of white privilege built around issues of land, labor, education, housing, and self-identity? Let’s move beyond generalities about racism and white privilege and move into responsibility for addressing concrete issues of racial justice.  10th Annual White Privilege Conference Keynote Thursday, April 2, 2009 Memphis, Tennessee To purchase a DVD of this keynote contact the WPC office at 719-255-4764.
