Theorizing White Ignorance From Du Bois to Mills: Narrative and Consumptive Innocence
Starting with Du Bois, scholars of race have investigated the role of White ignorance as it perpetuates White supremacy. Today, Charles Mills and scholars continue this inquiry by expanding the importance of White ignorance to include multiple forms. This article contributes to this inquiry by highlighting the role and types of White innocence. We argue that White innocence functions in two ways that generate and justify White innocence, narrativ…
White Supremacy and Racism in Progressive America: Race, Place, and Space
This book explores the connections between race, place and space, and their role in maintaining racial hierarchies. Focusing on White residents in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, it employs interviews, participant observation and content analysis to unveil the enduring racial inequality in this supposedly progressive area.
White Supremacy and Racism in Progressive America: Race, Place, and Space
In this study, set in one of the most progressive neighborhoods in Boston and the US, Miguel Montalva Barba asks self-proclaimed progressive White people questions about their understanding of gentrification to arrive at a new, historized understanding of race, place, and space.

Their fixation not only framed modern sociology with an emphasis on the ‘Other’ but cemented a taken-for-granted undergirding of Whiteness at its base. As a discipline, until we can name, point out, understand and highlight that form of violence, urban sociology will be deficient in unders…
(Re)enacting Settler Colonialism via White Resident Utterances
This is a qualitative study outlining the links between white resident utterances and settler colonialism. Specifically, this article provides evidence of how settler colonialism continues to operate in a progressive community, despite the narratives of community and diversity shared by research respondents. This is primarily done by the cultural master narratives that respondents uttered to make sense of 'community' and 'diversity' in a borough …
