explores the experiences and stories of eight white people from a small farming community in northern Wisconsin. Drawing on in-depth interviews with Delores, Frank, William, Erin, Robert, Libby, and Stan, as well as on his own experiences growing up in this same rural community, Lensmire creates a portrait of white people that highlights the
profound ambivalence
that has characterized white thinking and feeling in relation to people of color for at least the last two hundred years. White people’s relations to people of color and their cultures are characterized not just by fear, rejection, and violence, but also by attraction, envy, and desire.
