Under New Management: Whiteness In Post-Apartheid South African Life Writing, Antonio Simoes Da Silva Jul 2013

Under New Management: Whiteness In Post-Apartheid South African Life Writing, Antonio Simoes Da Silva

Tony Simoes da Silva

Alfred J. Lopez begins his introduction to postcolonial Whiteness: A Critical Reader on Race and Empire by stating "Whiteness is not, yet we continue for many reasons to act as though it is" (1).
