Event Description : "White Power, White Privilege, White Ignorance" A Lecture by Prof. Charles Mills.
Systems of domination maintain themselves not merely through force but through patterns of cognition and affect: learning to see and feel about the world in particular ways. Moreover, these patterns are not constant over time, but will evolve to adapt to changing circumstances. In this paper I will look at some of the ways in which white domination perpetuates itself, above all (in recent years) through the cultivation of a certain kind of "ignorance" about history and social reality.

Prof. Charles Mills is a well known Author of - The Racial Contract, Blackness Visible: Essays on Philosophy and Race, From Class to Race: Essays in White Marxism and Black Radicalism, Contract and Domination, Radical Theory, Caribbean Reality: Race, Class and Social Domination.
