Colonialism and Whiteness: a Talk

This talk was given on 4/20/2016 at PCC for Whiteness History Month at PCC.

It is based on my trilogy of blog posts on the history of Whiteness in the US.

Great talk, Max! Mixing images from colonialism's past and present works well to expose some of the physical and emotional consequences of whiteness for people of color throughout the Americas.
