The invention of the white race

Book • 2012
Theodore W. Allen's 'The Invention of the White Race' presents a comprehensive analysis of the origins of racial oppression in America.

The work challenges the notion of 'whiteness' as a natural attribute, instead positing it as a social construct used by ruling classes to maintain power over working-class people of all colors.

Volume 1 focuses on racial oppression and social control, while Volume 2 explores the origin of racial oppression in Anglo-America.
