DESCRIPTION:In The Machinery of Whiteness, Martinot examines how race and racism are 
 produced in the United States, analyzing the politics of racialization and 
 the racial segregation and racial deprivation that have kept the United 
 States a white-dominated society throughout its history. Martinot dedicates 
 this work to expunging white supremacy from the earth. \n\nThe Machinery of 
 Whiteness investigates how "whiteness" came to be foundational to the 
 process that then produced the modern concept of race. Martinot addresses 
 the instrumentalization of women as a necessary step in the formation of 
 the concept, furthering the debates regarding the relationships of race and 
 gender. He also addresses U.S. international interventionism, the 
 anti-immigrant movements, and white racist populism to describe the 
 political forms that white supremacy takes.\n\nMartinot brings together 
 these ideas to analyze the underlying cultural structures of racialization 
 that have driven and conditioned the resurgence of white supremacy and 
 white entitlement in the wake of the civil rights movements. This book is a 
 call to transform the cultural structures of the United States to make 
 justice and democracy—which depend on inclusion and not 
 segregation—possible. This is a book release seminar and book signing 
 event. Seminars will follow in July and August on 2nd and 4th 
 Wednesdays.\n\nSponsored by the BFUU Social Justice Ctee \nOpen to the
