Kurzfassung:
What is the relationship between where White Americans live and their attitudes about race? In 'How the Color Line Bends', Nina M. Yancy shows that what White people think depends on where they live - but not, as conventional wisdom might suggest, because they are more likely to feel 'threatened' in places where race is salient. Rejecting this tendency to tacitly position White Americans as victims, this book focuses on power, agency, and positionality in the study of prejudice and place.
