Dr. Alison Bailey was recently interviewed about her newly published book, The Weight of Whiteness: A Feminist Engagement with Privilege, Race, and Ignorance (2021)

Her interview appears on the Examining Ethics podcast produced by The Janet Prindle Institute for Ethics at DePauw University. In her book, she invites the reader to “wade slowly and mindfully into the weight of whiteness, and to attend to the ways white supremacy has misshapen our nation, our communities, and our humanity.” 

The episode featuring her interview can be found on the Examining Ethics podcast. Bailey is a professor of philosophy at Illinois State University where she directs the Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program.
