Whiteness

Salon: Writer Jonathan Metzl on the moment neo-Nazis invaded his discussion of "whiteness" - Writer whose event was invaded by racists: It's time for conservatives to decide what side of history they're on by Chauncey DeVega
Jonathan Metzl is a professor of psychiatry and sociology at Vanderbilt University and the author of the new book "Dying of Whiteness: How the Politics of Racial Resentment Is Killing America’s Heartland."

Last Saturday, his presentation for the 2019 National Antiracist Book Festival at the Politics and Prose bookstore in Washington was disrupted by a group of about 10 white nationalists.
