“People Were Being Nasty”: White Fragility and Calls for Collective Violence against Scholars of Color
Abstract
This essay is concerned with what we have described . . . as the politics of summoning. We offer our own experiences as a case study in order to demonstrate how white scholars evoke these summonings, the means by which they reprimand and attempt to retain control of those who refuse to answer their call, and their calls for collective violence against scholars of color when we refuse to comply.
