Against the Grain

War of Words

“All Lives Matter,” “I am Darren Wilson”: Reactionary whites and racist institutions have coopted and appropriated discourses originated by radical antiracist movements. Paula Ioanide discusses how and why this is happening. She also considers what white identity in the U.S., constituted historically by the exclusion and exploitation of perceived others, means for whites’ ability to bond meaningfully with other white people.
