White Supremacy begins with the anatomy of the murder of 10 black people in Buffalo, New York in 2022. The killer, 18-year old Payton Gendron, says he was driven by 'Great Replacement'–the conspiracy theory that a Jewish-led elite is replacing white people with black and brown people. This, and a spate of similar hate crimes, begs the question: what are the origins of such behaviour? Gavin Evans traces the historical roots of white supremacy.

Unsere Umwelt wurde von Männern für Männer gestaltet. In Das Patriarchat der Dinge öffnet Rebekka Endler uns die Augen für das am Mann ausgerichtete Design, das uns überall umgibt. Und sie zeigt, welche mitunter lebensgefährlichen Folgen es für Frauen hat. Unsere westliche Medizin ist beispielsweise – mit Ausnahme der Gynäkologie – auf den Mann geeicht: von Diagnoseverfahren und medizinischen Geräten bis hin zur Dosierung von Medikamenten. Aber auch die Dummys für Crashtests haben den männlichen Körper zum Vorbild – und damit das ganze Auto samt Airbags und Sicherheitsgurten.

In The Racial Wealth Gap, Baradaran outlines two tectonic forces that have driven apart the economic fortunes of white and Black families: wealth creation for white Americans, who have been systematically receiving financial subsidies in the century and a half since emancipation, and wealth destruction for Black Americans—either by vigilante violence or by official means, such as allowing Black banks to collapse or building highways through segregated Black communities.

The story of Jackie Robinson valiantly breaking baseball’s color barrier in 1947 is one that most Americans know. But less recognized is the fact that some seventy years earlier, following the Civil War, baseball was tenuously biracial and had the potential for a truly open game. How, then, did the game become so firmly segregated that it required a trailblazer like Robinson? The answer, Ryan A. Swanson suggests, has everything to do with the politics of “reconciliation” and a wish to avoid the issues of race that an integrated game necessarily raised.

As society shifts its perspective on allyship—moving from being "not racist" to "anti-racist"—White allies are being called upon to work toward changing the status quo. However, the vast majority of resources on this topic emphasize educating allies about anti-racism without teaching them how to do anti-racism work. This leaves well-meaning allies feeling stuck, frustrated, and afraid of getting it wrong. Beyond Fragility fills this gap by providing a step-by-step approach to effective anti-racism allyship.

Race isn’t real. But it changed the world. This book is the full history of how, and why, we made it up. From ancient tribal instincts to Enlightenment pseudoscience, from slavery and empire to redlining and algorithmic bias, Black and White walks through the invention of race as a system: where it started, how it spread, and why it still shapes everything. Biology didn’t create race. Power did. And the only way to dismantle the system is to understand how it was built. Brutal, clear, and global in scope, Black and White is a bullet through the myth and a blueprint for seeing through the lie.
