Whiteness and maleness are silent precisely because they do not need to be vocalised. Whiteness and maleness are implicit. They are unquestioned, they are the default.

This is my book of the year, hands down. I also listen to her podcast and read her newsletter, which is quite informative in itself.
Ah, didn’t know she had a podcast, nice!
This book should be required reading in social studies. And many other fields.
Definitely, immediately made me think of my booklists of the university and how this semester there is not a single book written by a women in it 😢
Are you being serious!? Your professor compiled a required reading list and all of the books have male authors. What about minorities? I’m curious if all of the authors are WHITE MALES. I hate to say this but 30 years ago when I was at university this may have gone right over my head. If I were I studying for my degree now, there is no way I could keep my mouth shut about this. This blows my mind.
