Recensioner i media
"The Machinery of Whiteness is extremely interesting and engaging. Martinot's use of historical examples to support and accentuate the structure of racialization is illuminating. His explication of the disenfranchisement of blacks after the Civil War is excellent, as is his introduction of the concept of a para-political state. Martinot's book advances the literature by synthesizing the history of the development of the black-white divide and a racialized structure." -Douglas George, University of Central Arkansas
