Interrogating Whiteness: Exploring Post-Race Claims in the United States, Brazil and the Netherlands

Bachelor thesis | Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology (BSc)
The thesis explores notions of whiteness among three different countries, the United States, Brazil and the Netherlands through the discussion of the notion of race and post-racism. Through the notion of colourblindness in the United States, mixture in Brazil and white innocence in the Netherlands, post-racial states enhance whiteness as the superior norm to justify racial discrimination.
