Advancing a White Discourse: A Response to Scheurich.

Sleeter, Christine E.

Educational Researcher, v22 n8 p13-15 Nov 1993

Responds to "Toward a White Discourse on White Racism" (James Joseph Scheurich; 1993). Reflects on participation of whites in racism and strategies whites have used to evade discourse on racism and to retreat from identifying racism with themselves. Ultimately, a discourse on racism must lead to action to reduce or eliminate white supremacy. An analogy is drawn with sexism. (SLD)
