Reviews"No reader of Thandeka's book will ever be able to think about race in quite the same way again." - John B. Cobb, Jr., The Claremont Graduate School, SThandeka adds a fresh voice to the conversation on race .The text is clearly and concisely written but packed with intellectual depth. The book should serve as an important resource to the Swhiteness studies movement and also provide insight to others who seek a framework for discussing racial identity. If, as W.E.B Dubois said, the problem of the 20th century is the problem of the color line, " then Thandeka "s book offers a twenty-first-century approach for all communities of color. -Religious Studies Review, July 2000, "Thandeka adds a fresh voice to the conversation on race....The text is clearly and concisely written but packed with intellectual depth. The book should serve as an important resource to the "whiteness studies" movement and also provide insight to others who seek a framework for discussing racial identity. If, as W.E.B Dubois said, 'the problem of the 20th century is the problem of the color line,' then Thandeka's book offers a twenty-first-century approach for all communities of color." -Religious Studies Review, July 2000, "A powerful study of the creation of 'whiteness' out of the world of shame ... This is a strong book, a book which all readers - whether they understand themselves to be 'white' or not - should read." - Sander L. Gilman, Henry R. Luce Distinguished Servi, "A challenging, thought-provoking book, full of original ideas." - Amitai Etzioni, author of The New Golden Rule, Thandeka adds a fresh voice to the conversation on race….The text is clearly and concisely written but packed with intellectual depth. The book should serve as an important resource to the whiteness studies movement and also provide insight to others who seek a framework for discussing racial identity. If, as W.E.B Dubois said, 'the problem of the 20th century is the problem of the color line,' then Thandeka's book offers a twenty-first-century approach for all communities of color. -Religious Studies Review, July 2000, "...a thought-provoking book about how White people learn to become racists....The author presents an intriguing study of the formation of White idenitity, defined not by power but by shame." --Ebony, January 2001, "No other study so fully demonstrates the origins of white identity in misery and defeat, as well as in power and privilege. Whiteness, Thandeka shows, is a shame which divides and afflicts whites as well as the nation." - David Roediger, author of The Wages of Whiteness, "When it comes to race issues, Thandeka will make the phones light up." - Dave Josephs, Afternoon Drive Producer, WPRO-AM, Providence, RI
