Narrating Whiteness: A Qualitative Exploration of How White College Students Construct and Give Meaning to Their Racial Location
Foste, Zak; Jones, Susan R.
Journal of College Student Development, v61 n2 p171-188 Mar-Apr 2020
The purpose of this study was to explore how white college students construct and give meaning to their racial locations through the act of storytelling. Guided by narrative inquiry and grounded in critical whiteness studies, the results of this study highlight 3 constructions of whiteness that illuminate understandings of the racial self, the racial self in relation to People of Color, and systems of racism and white supremacy. Implications for engaging white students on race, racism, and whiteness are offered.
