"An unusual and amazingly useful analysis of the profound effects of 'invisible' privilege in a country with deep, complex, and often unacknowledged histories of gender, race, and class division. A powerful, insightful, and courageous memoir."--Chandra Talpade Mohanty, coeditor of Feminist Genealogies, Colonial Legacies, Democratic Futures
"This compelling memoir is an important contribution to the emerging field of whiteness studies. Like George Lipsitz's The Possessive Investment in Whiteness, Rothenberg's autobiographical account illuminates and analyzes the ways in which white privilege has functioned in her own life and how readers might begin to understand the concept of the construction of 'whiteness' more broadly."--Beverly Guy-Sheftall, editor of Words of Fire: An Anthology of African American Feminist Thought
"This engaging memoir unflinchingly conveys the ambiguity and paradox that are inescapable when someone who has led a life of privilege devotes her life to the critique of race, class, and gender privilege. Rothenberg draws the reader into her story and allows us to experience firsthand the excitement of political and intellectual struggles that have transformed the academic landscape. The result is a memoir that is as important for its theoretical insights as for the window it provides into history."--Tom Digby, editor of Men Doing Feminism
"Rothenberg reflectively describes her process of coming to see how dynamics of power and privilege have shaped key experiences of her life. The chapter on living in Montclair, New Jersey particularly shows how accumulated subtle inequities for some relate to substantial unearned advantage for others. A rare combination of self-reflection and systematic analysis."--Peggy McIntosh, Wellesley College Center for Research on Women
