The Problem With White People, With Insight From St. Paul, Jason M. Schlude Feb 2019

The Problem With White People, With Insight From St. Paul, Jason M. Schlude

Languages and Cultures Faculty Publications

“I’m proud to be white,” someone recently told me. He interjected the comment in a contentious political conversation. I responded by advocating “more caution” in expression. The exchange fizzled without resolution. Yet this phrase, “proud to be white,” continues to disturb. My conversation partner was no white supremacist. But his chosen phrase would have fooled many. What lies within it is a key for understanding a threatening and intractable problem of American society: what I call “the problem of white people.”
