Talking Black and White Reviews

Most educational were the three chapters where Bell defines terms, describes her study, and explains her theoretical frameworks. Additionally, her concluding chapter and recommendations for the future are strong. This book's strength is its explanation of qualitative research methods and theories for graduate students and researchers. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students/faculty. * CHOICE *
Brilliantly-written and boldly honest, Talking Black and White is a refreshing empirical treatment of one of the most painfully intense social issues of our time. Gina Castle Bell skillfully manages to cut to the heart of the issue very early in the manuscript as she makes the provocative declaration, We have not treated people of color like they are as valuable as White folks in this nation. Then, she clearly articulates and deconstructs the pulp of our collective possibilities. This book tells us what white privilege looks like by calling attention to #TrueStory examples, and Bell offers a path for moving forward. This book will be a must-read for many years to come! -- Ronald L. Jackson II, University of Cincinnati and editor of Critical Studies in Media Communication
In ways that many White scholars are unable and/or unwilling to do, Dr. Gina Castle Bell reflexively confronts what is at stake amid real-world Black and White racial dynamics-namely, survival for many and the humanity of us all. I am impressed by her intellectual endeavor in Talking Black and White, not because it is perfect but because she is a White woman setting a high standard for any White person who claims a socially just sensibility. -- Rachel Alicia Griffin, The University of Utah
Castle Bell's monograph offers us an updated glimpse into black-white race relations in contemporary U.S. culture. Using an accessible style, and acute analysis, her book provides readers an opportunity to dialogue about intercultural (mis)communications as one of the largest issues facing us in the 21st century. -- Kathryn Hobson, James Madison University
