Making It Plain

Making It Plain: Deconstructing a Fictitious and Vicious Story About Racism interrogates the teaching methods to establish the dominant white supremacist pedagogy. Making It Plain demonstrates how Elliott Eisner's formula for cultural construction, Gordon Allport's definition of prejudice, and Howard Thurman's definition of capitulation to imagined sovereignty contributed to the sustainability of racism. Making It Plain educates learners and activists to question normative racist narratives, examine white supremacy's faulty premises, and identify cultural and individual contributions to racism and white supremacy's evolution and sustainability. Making It Plain empowers and encourages learners and activists to use their agency to deconstruct our white racist and supremacist thought (WRST pronounced worst) narratives.
