[quote=Anonymous]Edit to 02:22 * to deal with the distribution that it's claiming *exists.* (Sorry, omitted a word there.) NB: I don't disagree entirely with her analysis of that distribution of power in the United States. But she explicitly argues that 1) the supreme power of whiteness and 2) "white privilege" as the ultimate force structuring social capital and self-understandings extend even to non-western nations -- including nations that were never colonized, and in fact engaged in colonial projects of their own. In doing so, ironically, Diangelo shows herself to be deeply shaped by orientalist traditions of thought which locate agency and power primarily or only in whiteness and "the west."[/quote]
