National Conference on Whiteness
conference series
1996 - 2000
The National conference on Whiteness series was founded by CSWAC and produced four conferences over the course of five years. It was planned and organized as a means of bringing explicit discussion of whiteness, white privilege, and white American culture before the general public. The National Conference on Whiteness preceeded the better known White Privilege Conference which was founded by a separate person/organization in 2000 and continues to be held annually today.
The National Conference on Whiteness was the first public event ever held to promote the discussion of whiteness for anti-racist purposes.
