Racial Ambivalence in Diverse Communities
Whiteness and the Power of Color-Blind Ideologies
Sinopsis
This book makes use of in-depth interviews with
the residents most active in shaping the racially
diverse urban communities in which they live. As
most of them are white and progressive, it
provides a unique view into the particular ways
that color-blind ideologies work among liberals,
particularly those who encounter racial
diversity regularly. It reveals just the
pervasiveness of color-blind ideology and coded
race talk among these residents,
not
but also the difficulty they encounter when they
try to speak or work outside of the rubric
of color-blindness. This is especially vivid in
their concrete discussions of the
neighborhoods8217diversity and the choices
they and their families make to live in and
contribute to these communities. This close
examination of how they wrestle with diversity in
everyday life reveals the process whereby they
unintentionally re-create a white habitus inside
of these racially diverse communities, where
despite their pro-diversity stance they still act
upon and preserve comfort and privileges for
whites. The book also provides a close
examination of white racial identity, as the
context of a diverse community provides both the
catalyst and, significantly, the space for an
examination of an unarticulated racial
consciousness, which has implications for our
study of whiteness more generally. The layers of
ambivalence and pride surrounding the fact of
diversity in these neighborhoods and
residents8217Iives reveal both limitations
and hope as the nation itself becomes more
4
diverse. This critical and yet compassionate book
extends our understanding of contemporary racial
ideology and racial discourse, as well as our
understanding of the complexities of whiteness.
