Descrizione
Riepilogo:I will briefly recount the histories of three individuals who were exhibited for White audiences, to consider the role that the White spectator has in the construction of White supremacist ideology that casts Whiteness as norm and Blackness as deviant curiosity.

In conclusion I analyze the theology syllabi collected in the Wabash/AAR database to expose the ongoing construction of White supremacist ideologies within the theology classroom.
