In June last year, I began working on how I write about whiteness, white power, capitalism, and anti-capitalism mainly to develop concepts that are central to a manuscript I’m working on. Immediately, I was engaged by two groups of tumblr bloggers: libertarians and social justice bloggers. Neither appreciate my representations of free market capitalism and white social justice activists. Too bad, right.

I’ve received several requests for a post with links to what I’ve written. This is not everything, but it includes the posts where I work on concepts I think are significant.

I’m into revision, so I’ve edited and proofed and added a little here and there, but this is mostly as it was posted. You can use this long post if you like as each entry is present after “Read More”, or save the individual links. I’ll add to it as people help me find things I’ve written that they’d like included.

  1. dagNotes: Notes On Whiteness, White Power, Capitalism & Anti-Capitalism
  2. On Crass Libertarianism (a vehicle for white supremacist capitalist society)
  3. dagNotes: A little bit on how I see privilege and white power working, even in Korea
  4. White Power 101: White Privilege Denial Discourse
  5. Why it’s racist. In one sentence.

Critical Race Theory: What Derrick Bell Taught, And What It Means Now

Very surprised to see this accurate portrayal of Bell, critical race theory, and Obama’s relationship with both in International Business Times. Good for them.

Your stupid Tumblr thread about race is not useful. (Pass it on.)

Much silly shit by people who should know better on the Internet. We know this. Right now, the most idiotic Tumblr debate is about how only white people can be racist. I suppose it’s fun to bait racists. But the claim is not true. And what if it were? It’s a horrible way to conduct discourse about oppression.

The problem with this debate is the self-proclaimed feminists and activists are perpetuating the notion that racial categories are more than social apparatuses. The claim white people can’t experience racism may be provocative but it limits the discourse about race to bodies (male and white) necessarily reinforcing that whiteness is something more than an ideological apparatus and further establishing the white power structure. Consequently, the debate reinforces the notion that there’s something natural about race, as in natural in the order of things. Thus, it establishes a rank determinism within the discourse on Tumblr about race. Moreover, it insipidly ignores that the white power structure in capitalist society cultivates the spectacle of whiteness to promote cover for the racist free-hand of the market, an identity that has no visage, no body, no color, no class, no gender.
