The Center Must Not Hold: White Women Philosophers on the Whiteness of Philosophy Hardcover - 2010

by George Yancy; Contribution by Barbara Applebaum; Contribution by Susan E. Babbitt


From the publisher

In this collection, white women philosophers engage boldly in critical acts of exploring ways of naming and disrupting whiteness in terms of how it has defined the conceptual field of philosophy. Focuses on the whiteness of the epistemic and value-laden norms within philosophy itself, the text dares to identify the proverbial elephant in the room known as white supremacy and how that supremacy functions as the measure of reason, knowledge, and philosophical intelligibility.
