本文探讨了白色男子气概的表征和种族主义的描绘在反英雄叙事的基本有线电视网络FX在美国。通过将道德上模棱两可的白色主人公的矛盾种族情感与白色下层阶级刻板印象中公开的种族主义并列，《盾牌》（2002-2008年），无政府之子Sons of Anarchy（2008）和Justified（2010）承认种族偏见在美国社会中的持续存在，同时也支持否认种族歧视持续影响的主流色盲言论。结构性种族主义尽管一些学者解释说，超级男性化的反英雄节目的流行，说明了“危机中的男性气质”的概念，表明与白色，男性特权相关的利益下降，本分析使用G。哈里斯的“后男性主义电视剧”的概念，认为在这些FX节目中，白色男性的一贯部署通过“他者化”有问题的种族态度加强了与霸权白人相关的后种族意识形态，但仍然允许白色观众从公开的种族主义表达中获得“讽刺”的乐趣。
This article explores the representations of white masculinities and the depiction of racism in anti-heroic narratives on the basic cable network FX in the United States. By juxtaposing the ambivalent racial sensibilities of a morally ambiguous white protagonist with the overt racism of stereotypical depictions of the white underclass, The Shield (2002–2008), Sons of Anarchy (2008–) and Justified (2010–) acknowledge the continuing existence of racial prejudice in American society while also supporting the dominant colour blind rhetoric that denies the continuing impact of structural racism. Although some scholars interpret the popularity of hyper-masculine anti-hero shows that speak to the notion of ‘masculinity-in-crisis’ as indicative of the declining benefits associated with white, male privilege, this analysis uses G. Harris’ notion of ‘postmasculinist television drama’ to argue that the consistent deployment of white masculinities in these FX programmes reinforce the post-race ideology associated with hegemonic whiteness by ‘othering’ problematic racial attitudes yet still allow white audiences to take ‘ironic’ pleasure from expressions of overt racism.
