The Ethics of Inclusion, Exclusion, and Protection in<i>The Green Book</i>

Josephine Walwema University of Washington ; Jared S. Colton ; Steve Holmes Texas Tech University

Abstract

This article explores the ethical complexity of inclusion, exclusion, and protection in TPC, drawing upon a historical technical document, The Green Book, which helped Black American travelers in the 1930-60s locate safe leisure spaces in a segregated society. We examine The Green Book through the antiracist thinker Kendi to understand some of the ethical limits of the binary of inclusion/exclusion and identify necessary forms of protection for historically- and multiply-marginalized groups.
