This isn't answering my question about the catch 22 regarding "don't you dare identify as white but don't you dare identify as not white either way you're a racist" by the way this just seems to be a massive reading list to try and make me realise how whiteness as a social concept has been used to justify slavery and oppression, but that's not actually something that I am ignorant of. Not to say I can't learn more of course. But this list doesn't help answer my actual question.
