Ebook About THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERFrom the Civil War to our combustible present, White Rage reframes the continuing conversation about race in America, chronicling the history of the powerful forces opposed to black progress.Since the abolishment of slavery in 1865, every time African Americans have made advances towards full democratic participation, white reaction has fuelled a rollback of any gains. Carefully linking historical flashpoints – from the post-Civil War Black Codes and Jim Crow to expressions of white rage after the election of America's first black president – Carol Anderson renders visible the long lineage of white rage and the different names under which it hides. Compelling and dramatic in the history it relates, White Rage adds a vital new dimension to the conversation about race in America.'Beautifully written and exhaustively researched' CHIMAMANDA NGOZI ADICHIE'An extraordinarily timely and urgent call to confront the legacy of structural racism' NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW'Brilliant' ROBIN DIANGELO, AUTHOR OF WHITE FRAGILITYBook White Rage: The Unspoken Truth of Our Racial Divide Review :
This book brought understanding to a lot of things. As a white male 54 yoa, I was taught a lot of things that you hear over and over in the news and said by friends and we cheer yea, yea! This book is loaded with facts about what has happened and how white people have used the system of the courts and politics to keep minorities, specifically African Americans down. Its sad, but a real eye opener. What are we afraid of? I want to say I am sorry to every African American I know and see. If this writing was not backed by fact of law, I would have closed it and not returned. As it was I read it straight through and gave copies to my friends to read. Before you buy this book, you need to know what you are getting. This is not social science. There is no methodology, no sampling, no peer review. This is also not academic history. It is heavily end noted, but the end notes are often misleading or simply wrong. Of the sample I checked, approximately 40% were entirely or substantially misrepresented. The most accurate were those citing primary sources, of which Ms. Anderson has very few. They are mostly court cases. On the other hand, the use of tertiary sources is quite abundant. Ms. Anderson has proved that there are a significant number of people who share her biases and prejudices and have written about them. You might be able to make the case that the first 2/3 of the book is pop history, in that particular genre this would not be that bad. Ms. Anderson is not Barbara Tuchman but she can at least keep a narrative moving.Ms. Anderson's hypothesis, if we can call it that, is that not only are there economic motivations for white racism (primarily against African Americans, though Hispanics, Asians and Native Americans do figure in on a number of occasions. Short aside, Carol: Indians prefer to be called Indians rather than Native Americans so that they can remind triumphalist fans of Columbus how off course he was....), but that there is a primal urge on the part of white people to deny black people their dignity and equal opportunity at success.I am guessing many of your heard the problem with this already: okay, interesting idea, now, Why? Why are white people uniquely cursed with this primal urge to deny others their rightful place in society? Well, Carol doesn't know or she is not saying but, either way, that question isn't going to be answered in this book. She denies that the source of the historical antagonism was exclusively economic so, what is it then? Having read the entire book, I have no clue.More damning, however, is a more basic issue which Carol never addresses: what is "white"? Is this rage-filled entity a person, a club or gathering (think the KKK), many people, a particular economic class or ethnicity? Does this "white" have a particular religion or none at all? Once again, Carol doesn't feel the need to describe her straw man before she knocks him down. One gets the impression that "white" is simply anyone who disagrees with her politically.And oh, is there politics here! She added a new afterword called "Imaginings"! John Lennon would be proud! First, we are treated to the now completely discredited "Russian Mole" narrative, the voter suppression fantasy, the "how brutally they mistreated Barack because he's black" tale (Carol is shocked and dismayed that Republicans would act to thwart the policy initiatives of a left of center Democratic president with whom they disagreed. How dare they! It can only be racism!). Then, you guessed it, she saddles up the unicorn. We can make the world a perfect place if we all just let Carol and her "moderate" hard left comrades completely remake the United States to be the leftist fantasyland Sweden never was able to become.I will conclude with a few observations about strange things in the text. She prefers "disfranchisement" to "disenfranchisement" and uses the word liberally, especially in the How-to-Ride-Your-Unicorn chapter. I found it a little jarring never having encountered it before, but Google assures me it is a legitimate alternative. She also twice mentions the sinking of the Lusitania. Curious given that Americans were only 10% of the dead and none of those were African American. If only the rage-filled ones are dying, isn't that a net positive for the world? It is pretty clear that Carol's knowledge of history, specifically how Europe and East Asia have an impact on developments in the US, is quite limited. Her knowledge of economics is rudimentary (think what you learned in high school when you took economics to avoid another semester of math...). And, of course, she never addresses the fact that she is constantly referring to "white allies" that are helping to move the cause of equality forward, but bear the same adjective as the rage-filled ones. This is why she really needs to tell the reader what "white" is. Or come up with a better title. Or read 'Taboo' by Wilfred Reilly. And grow up. Yeah, grow up would be a good suggestion, too.
