In The Everyday Language of White Racism, Jane H. Hill
provides an incisive analysis of everyday language to reveal the
underlying racist stereotypes that continue to circulate in
American culture.
- provides a detailed background on the theory of race and racism
- reveals how racializing discourse—talk and text that produces and reproduces ideas about races and assigns people to them—facilitates a victim-blaming logic
- integrates a broad and interdisciplinary range of literature from sociology, social psychology, justice studies, critical legal studies, philosophy, literature, and other disciplines that have studied racism, as well as material from anthropology and sociolinguistics
- Part of the Blackwell Studies in Discourse and Culture Series
