The invention of the white race: the origin of racial oppression - theodore w. allen

Theodore W.

Allen (1919-2005) was an anti-white supremacist, working-class intellectual and activist who began his pioneering work on white skin privilege and white race privilege in 1965.

He co-authored the influential White Blindspot (1967), authored Can White Workers Radicals Be Radicalized? (1969), and wrote the ground-breaking Class Struggle and the Origin of Racial Slavery: The Invention of the White Race (1975) before publication of his seminal two-volume classic The Invention of the White Race (1994, 1997).
