5.0 out of 5 stars
NOW what is whiteness?,
By Elizabeth "melaniesteyn" (Stellenbosch, Western Cape South Africa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Whiteness Just Isn't What Is Used to Be: White Identity in a Changing South Africa (Suny Series, Interruptions -- Border Testimony(ies) and Crit) (Paperback)
When change finally came to South Africa, it came fast. Whites are the focus of this fascinating study, because whether they fought for or against that change, whites find the carpet pulled out from under their old identities. Just like their black compatriots, they are redefining themselves. Melissa Steyn conveys much about the dynamics of personal and social change and describes some of the currents flowing in the new South Africa. The book is searching and objective, in keeping with its academic status, but it is accessible, with touches of humour.
