Title: Bearing witness to whiteness
Related: The Philippine community herald, Vol. 12, Issue 7, 20 July 2006, p.31-46
Publisher: Philippine Community Herald Newspaper
Date: 2006
Author/Creator: Laforteza, Elaine
Description: This article argues that whiteness is a system of representation that produces specific discourses of power and knowledge that deploy racialised spaces and bodily movements. I use North America as the focus of this analysis to examine the systematic operation of whiteness as a discursive and legislative authority in daily life.
