The Psychosis of Whiteness
This chapter examines psychosis as a metaphor for whiteness within post-colonial discourse, questioning its definitions as either a medical condition or a political construct. It highlights the interplay between race, identity, and historical context, particularly in relation to colonialism and systemic racism, using Australia as a key example. By analyzing societal narratives and the delusions of white supremacy, the chapter argues for confronting underlying injustices rather than justifying irrational beliefs.
