Sociologist Seeking Justice: A Grandfather's Guide to Discussing Whiteness, White Privilege, and White Supremacy

By Dwight W Jackson and Dr Dwight W. Jackson

Why are white Americans slow to acknowledge complicity to the continuation of racism in the United States? Dr. Jackson draws from his experience and training in religion and sociology to explore the social and family forces that contributed to the racial messages that framed his early life. This book examines key historical moments in the development of slavery and race relations in the United States. He follows his family from Ireland and England through their historical situations to link his family to the racialization of our society. Dr. Jackson has written this text as a guide for his grandchildren, he hopes that the content of these pages will help you discuss these critical issues with yours.
