Driscoll delves into the intricate and multifaceted concept of the \"white devil\" trope, exploring its profound implications for understanding and addressing the tensions arising from toxic white masculinity. Through a seamless blend of academic theory, (auto)ethnography, and memoir-styled narrative, Driscoll uncovers the rich historical and philosophical roots of this trope as it manifests in the stories and myths of various black religious and philosophical traditions, particularly through the contemporary cultural expression of hip-hop.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDriscoll's profound analysis reveals that the trope of the white devil stems from a deep-seated self-hatred within many white men, which is often concealed and revealed through various defense mechanisms, primarily anger. This book serves as a fertile ground for discussing the intricate relationship between perceptions of self, emotional regulation, and our behavior towards others. By examining the ways in which the \"white devil\" trope is perpetuated and challenged, Driscoll offers valuable insights into the complex dynamics of race, gender, and power, shedding light on the urgent need for empathy, understanding, and transformative action in our society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis thought-provoking work is a must-read for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of the complexities of contemporary culture and the ongoing struggle against toxic masculinity. Through his meticulous research and compelling storytelling, Driscoll provides a roadmap for navigating the challenges posed by white supremacy and fostering a more inclusive and equitable world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 366g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 157 x 234 x 20 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781350175938\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Christopher M.
