Books & Sh*t: Blackness Through the White Hegemony Gaze

  • Summary

  • "Black History Month should be intentional to all, but we know it’s only intentional to some. Here, on this podcast, we’re rooted in blackness no matter the month."
    ―Books & Sex Podcast


    Hey there! It's been a while! As Black History Month comes to a close, we're getting into some big business, big discussion thangs in Episode 6! In this episode, we'll be discussing blackness through the lens of white hegemony.


    he·gem·o·ny:

    leadership or dominance, especially by one country or social group over others.


    the white gaze:

    the assumption that the default reader or observer is coming from a perspective of someone who identifies as white, or that people of color sometimes feel need to take into account the white reader or observer's reaction.


    We're book readers, particularly romance readers, but in this episode, we’ll also be discussing blackness through the white hegemony gaze in books, movies, TV, etc. We hope you learn, reflect, and respond to this episode with an open mind and discussion!
