- Description
- In this book the fur trade is examined not simply as an economic activity but as a social and cultural complex that continued for nearly two centuries. Marriages of fur traders to Indian women created bonds that helped advance trade relations. As a result there emerged a unique society derived from both Indian and European culture. Gradually mixed-blood women took their positions in fur-trade society as they possesed the ideal qualifications for a fur trader's wife. In a society where marriage defined a woman's position, white women felt threatened by the presence of acculturated native women against whom they might have to compete for husbands. White women emerged as agents of racism seeking to protect their social status. The author pieced together information from extensive collections of traders' journals, letters, and wills, examining historica evidence in the broader context of social relevance.

- Description
- Gloria Wekker explores a central paradox of Dutch culture: the passionate denial of racial discrimination and colonial violence coexisting alongside aggressive racism and xenophobia. Accessing a cultural archive built over 400 years of Dutch colonial rule, Wekker fundamentally challenges Dutch racial exceptionalism by undermining the dominant narrative of the Netherlands as a 'gentle' and 'ethical' nation. Wekker analyzes the Dutch media's portrayal of black women and men, the failure to grasp race in the Dutch academy, contemporary conservative politics and the controversy surrounding the folkloric character Black Pete, showing how the denial of racism and the expression of innocence safeguards white privilege.

Growing up in majority-white schools, organizations, and churches, Austin writes, 'I had to learn what it means to love blackness,' a journey that led to a lifetime spent navigating America's racial divide as a writer, speaker and expert who helps organizations practice genuine inclusion.
