The Cost of Privilege: Taking on the System of White Supremacy and Racism

Front Cover
Camino Press, 2007 - History - 466 pages
"The Cost of Privilege" takes readers from the creation of the white race over three centuries ago to the present-day myth of a colorblind society; from the intersections of class, gender, and race to the concrete advantages -- and harsh underside -- of the privileges white people experience every day; from the victories when people rallied across the color line to the failures of some of those alliances to hold; from personal transformations to international struggles.
