Outliving the White Lie by James Wiggins
Part history, part memoir, Outliving the White Lie charts conflicting narratives of American and southern identity through a blend of public, family, and deeply personal history. James Wiggins, who was raised in rural Mississippi, pairs thorough historical research with his own lived experiences.
Comprised of poignant, interwoven reflections on family, public history, and personal experience, Outliving the White Lie provides a sweeping history of the costs of slavery and white supremacy to the South and nation" - David R. Roediger, coeditor of The Construction of Whiteness: An Interdisciplinary Analysis of Race Formation and the Meaning of a White Identity
James Wiggins is a former instructor of history at Copiah-Lincoln Community College and features columnist for the Natchez Democrat.
