remote_a "whiteness studies" is not an attack on people, whatever their skin color. instead, "whiteness studies" is an attempt to think critically about how white skin preference has operated systematically, structurally, and sometimes unconsciously as a dominant force in american—and indeed in global—society and culture. thus it includes examining how white skin preference insinuates itself into the culture of communities of color as well, where we may find everything from prejudice against darker skinned people within the community to commercial practices of white-body imitation and surgery (nose jobs, skin creams, eye-lid alteration, etc.). the transnational character of white privilege results from the legacy of european colonial imperialism, so that whiteness studies may be usefully articulated with theories of globalization and postcoloniality as well.

die dritte welt in den metropolen. in wien war sauseschritts alltag nur wenig davon geprägt, aber hier in paris verlieren sich augen und sinn oft in diese schönen, fremden und interessanten gesichter der schwarzen migrant/innen. und es wäre gut, könnte sich das fremde hier in normalität des umgangs verwandeln.
in diesem zusammenhang hat auch das remote_a genderblog auf eine studie zu whiteness verwiesen. zynisch, aber (leider noch immer) sehr treffend das remote_a ethnoblog zum schreiben über afrikaner/innen. denn das wahrhaft erschreckende liegt ganz remote_a woanders. paul auster und ihr dagbook wissen es!
