| Summary: | In The Everyday Language of White Racism, late Professor Jane Hill provides an incisive analysis of everyday language to reveal the underlying racist stereotypes that circulate in American culture. After two decades from publication, this established textbook continues to be used for undergraduate and graduate courses across various disciplines in American universities and is considered a founding text in the study of language, race and racism. With discussion on systemic racism in the United States becoming more relevant than ever, the new edition will address recent developments in the field and bring Hill's contributions into critical conversation with the most current literature on American racial issues (such as racial profiling, police violence, Black Lives Matter movement, white nationalism, white fragility, anti-Asian violence) and the various forms of institutional racism that continue to limit and endanger people of color in the contemporary United States. |
