In this paper, I point to the new paradigm in Southern literature, Critical Whiteness Studies. Since 1990s, scholars across various fields of studies have engaged in Critical Whiteness Studies. They have explored what white identity means, how and why whiteness has been constructed, and the way whiteness and white power have been maintained in American society. Southern scholars have engaged in Critical Whiteness Studies as well, pointing out the power of whiteness in the canonization process in which black writers have been dismissed from the conception of Southern literature. Such scholarly efforts have led to restoring African American voices to the conception of Southern literature. In addition to the necessity of including black writers into Southern literature because of their unfair exclusion from it, I offer another important reason: Including black writers into Southern literature will contribute to Critical Whiteness Studies. In other words, since black writers offer keen insights into whiteness that white writers barely offer, inclusion of African American writers into Southern literature will enhance our understanding of whiteness, which is necessary to remove color-line in American society and culture.
Abstract
In this paper, I point to the new paradigm in Southern literature, Critical Whiteness Studies. Since 1990s, scholars across various fields of studies have engaged in Critical Whiteness Studies. They have explored what white identity means, how and why whiteness has been constructed, and the way whiteness and white power have been maintained in American society. Southern scholars have engaged in Critical Whiteness Studies as well, pointing out the power of whiteness in the canonization process in which black writers have been dismissed from the conception of Southern literature. Such scholarly efforts have led to restoring African American voices to the conception of Southern literature. In addition to the necessity of including black writers into Southern literature because of their unfair exclusion from it, I offer another important reason: Including black writers into Southern literature will contribute to Critical Whiteness Studies. In other words, since black writers offer keen insights into whiteness that white writers barely offer, inclusion of African American writers into Southern literature will enhance our understanding of whiteness, which is necessary to remove color-line in American society and culture.
