Our Policy on Letters
Express your feelings and opinions about our site, the Center and its mission, and/or the general topics of whiteness and white American culture. Trade stories, anecdotes and observations. Announce related events and websites of interest to our viewers. Let people know if you have linked to us.

The Center wishes to encourage dialogue on the topics of whiteness and white American culture in an atmosphere that is respectful. As a policy, we let letter writers speak for themselves.

All messages sent to LetterToTheEditor@euroamerican.org are considered to be submitted for publication on www.euroamerican.org. Letters are published at the discretion of the editor. Comments and other material not intended for publication should be submitted to Contact@euroamerican.org

All letters must be accompanied by the writer's email address. We will not publish anonymous letters. Also, please limit the length to 500 words or less. Longer letters may not be published.

If you are announcing a website, please do not simply send us the URL and a one-line note. Say something about why your site might be of interest to our readers, and how it relates to the topics of whiteness and white American culture.

The entire dialogue on guilt and innocence is simply a smokescreen hiding the truly painful inner reality of white culture. We have failed to live up to our own values. Go!

Unable to see race, they cannot see racism. Blind to color, they are blind to white culture as well. In a racially structured society they are unable to change a structure they fail to see. Go!

The demotion of African Americans to subhuman status was part of the same process of forming the "American" character the historians describe. Indeed, it was necessary to the process itself. Unless black Americans were written out of the human race, "Americans" could not declare themselves custodians of the universal rights we treasure so dearly. Go!

There is another model. This third model says that you can be white, intentionally, consciously and with some pride, and also be nonracist. You can look at the collective action of your people and hope that they might learn to live in a multiracial society without having to dominate it, either consciously or unconsciously. Go!
