Being White
I loved this book. It was easy to read, understand, and offered fascinating insights into white privilege. The method of data collection (autobiographical accounts from white university students) was highly effective, and helped to illustrate the 'white blindness' that is arguably experienced by white people. McKinney did a marvellous job of integrating 'white' attitudes and analysing them within the context of white privilege. Her analysis of white culture was both sound and highly relevant. I would recommend this book for anyone interested in whiteness studies.
