商品描述

What does it mean to reckon with a legacy of white supremacy? White Work and Reparative Genealogy invites white-identifying readers on a courageous journey into the heart of ancestral memory, historical accountability, and racial repair.

Clinical psychologist Mary Watkins traces her family's lineage from 1607 Jamestown through generations of slave ownership and racial violence in the American South. Blending personal narrative, historical research, and psychological insight, Watkins models a practice of "white work"--a form of reparative genealogy that confronts the silences and distortions in white family histories. With reflective questions at the end of each chapter, this book offers practical tools for readers ready to explore their own histories and take action toward racial justice.

This is a book for those who seek to move through guilt and shame--not around them--toward healing, solidarity, and shared liberation.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

面對白人至上主義的遺產意味著什麼？《白人工作與修復性家譜》邀請認同為白人的讀者勇敢地踏上探索祖先記憶、歷史責任和種族修復的旅程。

臨床心理學家瑪麗·沃特金斯（Mary Watkins）追溯她的家族血脈，從1607年的詹姆斯鎮（Jamestown）開始，經歷了幾代的奴隸擁有和美國南方的種族暴力。沃特金斯將個人敘事、歷史研究和心理洞察融合在一起，展示了一種「白人工作」的實踐——這是一種修復性家譜，旨在面對白人家庭歷史中的沉默與扭曲。每章結尾的反思問題為準備探索自己歷史並朝向種族正義行動的讀者提供了實用工具。

這是一本為那些希望穿越罪疚感和羞恥感——而不是繞過它們——走向療癒、團結和共同解放的讀者而寫的書。
