The growing political power of racialized groups in white‐supremacist societies has unsettled the hegemonic position of whiteness. In the United States, this political shift has led to the linguistic repositioning of whiteness within public discourse as visible and vulnerable rather than unmarked and dominant; such repositioning operates as part of a larger strategy for maintaining white supremacy. Within white publics, which are simultaneously constituted through white public space, white public discourse, and white affects, those who are white‐identified linguistically engage in affective performances that reassert racial dominance by invoking claims of wounded whiteness. The article compares the affective strategies of white public discourse found, on the one hand, in ethnographic interviews with white youth in liberal educational spaces in California and, on the other hand, in the mediatized discourse of the US racist far right. The analysis identifies five affective discourse strategies deployed in the white public discourse of both groups: colormute racism; disavowals of racism; appropriations of diversity discourses; performances of white fragility; and claims of reverse racism. This shared set of discursive strategies is part of the larger convergence and mutual dependence of militant racism and mainstream racism in protecting all white people’s possessive investment in white supremacy.

白色的公共生活影响

在白人至上主义社会中,种族化群体的政治力量日益增强,这使白人的霸权地位变得不稳定。在美国,这种政治转变导致语言在公共话语中对白人的重新定位是可见的和脆弱的,而不是无标记的和占主导地位的。这种重新定位是维持白人至上的更大战略的一部分。在白人公众中,白人公众通过白人公共场所,白人公众话语和白人情感同时构成,在语言上被白人认同的人从事情感表演,通过援引关于受伤的白人的主张来重新确立种族统治地位。这篇文章比较了白人公众话语的情感策略,一方面,在加利福尼亚的通识教育空间中与白人青年进行的人种志采访中,另一方面,在美国种族主义极右翼的调解演说中。分析确定了在两组白人公共话语中使用的五种情感话语策略:消灭种族主义;反对种族主义;挪用多元化话语;白色脆性的表现;并声称存在反种族主义。这套共同的话语策略是好战种族主义和主流种族主义在保护所有白人对白人至上的所有制投资方面更大的融合和相互依赖的一部分。反对种族主义;挪用多元化话语;白色脆性的表现;并声称存在反种族主义。这套共同的话语策略是好战种族主义和主流种族主义在保护所有白人对白人至上的所有制投资方面更大的融合和相互依赖的一部分。反对种族主义;挪用多元化话语;白色脆性的表现;并声称存在反种族主义。这套共同的话语策略是好战种族主义和主流种族主义在保护所有白人对白人至上的所有制投资方面更大的融合和相互依赖的一部分。
