Based on 29 in-depth interviews during the run-up to the 2016 U.S. presidential election, we examine how Trump supporters engaged in a form of identity work that we call signifying aggrieved white selves. Taking an interactionist approach, we demonstrate how they used racial discourse and emotional communication to engage in three distinct forms of racial identity work: (1) othering racialized freeloaders, (2) criminalizing racialized others, and (3) discrediting racialized dissenters. Our study contributes to research on racial discourse and emotions and research on race and the 2016 presidential election, which emphasize linguistic or cultural frames and/or subjectivity rather than the dramatization of racial selfhood. We propose that signifying aggrieved white selfhood is a generic process and that racial identity work is a useful lens for analyzing how a foundational concept of critical race theory—namely, that race is a social construct—is reproduced in everyday life.

表示委屈的白人自我:特朗普支持者的种族认同工作

基于 2016 年美国总统大选前夕的 29 次深度采访,我们研究了特朗普的支持者如何从事一种我们称之为“表示受屈的白人自我”的身份认同工作. 采取互动主义的方法,我们展示了他们如何使用种族话语和情感交流来参与三种不同形式的种族认同工作:(1)其他种族化的白手起家,(2)将种族化的其他人定为犯罪,以及(3)诋毁种族化的持不同政见者。我们的研究有助于对种族话语和情绪的研究以及对种族和 2016 年总统大选的研究,这些研究强调语言或文化框架和/或主观性,而不是种族自我的戏剧化。我们建议表示受屈的白人自我是一个通用过程,种族身份工作是分析批判种族理论的基本概念(即种族是一种社会建构)如何在日常生活中再现的有用镜头。
