‘Whiteness studies’ is a new and controversial academic field that seeks to change how white people think about race. The field is based on a left-leaning interpretation of history by scholars who say the concept of race was created by a rich white European and American elite,
and has been used to deny property, power and status to non-white groups for two centuries.
