Book Hero Magic crafted this summary to help describe this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Summary
The Enduring, Invisible, and Ubiquitous Centrality of Whiteness offers an upfront, close examination of how whiteness influences race relationships. It explores whiteness as a pervasive ideology that often goes unacknowledged yet deeply affects therapy and society. The book argues that intentionally naming, deconstructing, and dismantling whiteness is essential for addressing systemic bias and advancing racial justice.

Contributors from diverse backgrounds discuss topics such as the vicious cycle of white centrality, experiences of Black individuals in a white-dominated world, undoing internalised white supremacy, the complexities of white, Jewish identity, becoming antiracist leaders, and fostering antiracist clinical practice.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

An up-front, close, and fresh examination of the impact of whiteness and how it contributes to our troubled race relationships, The Enduring, Invisible, and Ubiquitous Centrality of Whiteness posits that whiteness is a pervasive ideology that is rarely overtly identified or examined, although it has profound effects on race relationships in therapy and beyond.

Being intentional about naming, deconstructing, and dismantling whiteness is a precursor to responding effectively to the racial reckoning of our society and improving race relationships, addressing systemic bias, and moving toward the creation of a more racially just world.

Contributors to the volume are from different backgrounds and trainings, and write on such topics as: the vicious cycle of white centrality; being Black in a world of whiteness; undoing internalised white supremacy; intersectionality and the contradictions of a white, Jewish identity; becoming an antiracist leader; and building an antiracist clinical practice.
