在《白色纯真》中,格洛丽亚·韦克探讨了荷兰文化的一个核心悖论:对种族歧视和殖民暴力的热情否认与咄咄逼人的种族主义和仇外心理共存。在访问荷兰400多年殖民统治建立的文化档案时,韦克从根本上挑战了荷兰种族例外论,破坏了荷兰作为一个“温和”和“有道德”的国家的主导叙事。Wekker分析了荷兰媒体对黑人女性和男性的刻画,荷兰学院对种族问题的未能把握,当代保守派政治(包括支持反移民言论的同性恋政客),以及围绕民间人物黑皮特的争议,展示了否认种族主义和表达无辜如何维护白人特权。韦克揭示了种族的后殖民遗产及其在塑造荷兰白人自我中的作用,展示了这个国家有争议的、持久的种族主义遗产。
In White Innocence Gloria Wekker explores a central paradox of Dutch culture: the passionate denial of racial discrimination and colonial violence coexisting alongside aggressive racism and xenophobia. Accessing a cultural archive built over 400 years of Dutch colonial rule, Wekker fundamentally challenges Dutch racial exceptionalism by undermining the dominant narrative of the Netherlands as a "gentle" and "ethical" nation. Wekker analyzes the Dutch media's portrayal of black women and men, the failure to grasp race in the Dutch academy, contemporary conservative politics (including gay politicians espousing anti-immigrant rhetoric), and the controversy surrounding the folkloric character Black Pete, showing how the denial of racism and the expression of innocence safeguards white privilege. Wekker uncovers the postcolonial legacy of race and its role in shaping the white Dutch self, presenting the contested, persistent legacy of racism in the country.
