More White Work

Filed under: privi-legium, white life — ana @ 12:39 pm

My ongoing fascination with the unfolding of Stuff White People Like led me here today; which in turn led me to Black People Love Us!, from 2002. I think it probably does similar work on white identities (i.e. reconfirming them through self-reflexivity), but as a deliberately political strategy it perhaps directs the debate with more precision. Compare the media that it got with that of SWPL.
