Biography
Samuel Jaye Tanner is Assistant Professor of Literacy Education at The Pennsylvania State University, Altoona, USA.
"The pulsing heart of this book is Samuel Jaye Tanner’s storytelling and commentary about a remarkable, year-long project in which white high school students investigated and dramatized how whiteness deformed their own community. Along the way, Tanner criticizes anti-racist pedagogies grounded in a white privilege framework and theorizes white racial identities with sophistication and power. Many different things are needed for the fight against racism in this time of Trump—Tanner’s book is one of them."
- Timothy J. Lensmire, Professor, University of Minnesota, USA
