"TRYING TO SAVE THE WHITE MAN'S SOUL": PERPETUALLY CONVERGENT INTERESTS AND RACIAL SUBJUGATION |
133 Yale Law Journal 1335 (February, 2024) |
An assumption that dominates the discourse on race in the United States is that racial subjugation is only harmful to the subjugated. Many people take for granted that White people have nothing to gain from disrupting the existing racial hierarchy. Indeed, efforts to uplift people of color are typically viewed as coming at the expense of White... |
