It also uses Jungian concepts to illuminate the ways the social invention of race and enslavement of blacks cast a transgenerational shadow that drives anti-black racism and its denial—both of which protect the fragile white sense of self, white privilege, and the power dynamic that places whites above non-whites. The author explores how white Christian nationalism is seen to fuse religion, white supremacy, and patriotism into a power that gains sustenance from the death of black bodies. Providing readers with psychological tools oriented to sociocultural change, the book ends by discussing the transpersonal, mythological patterns that Kaepernick and his protest evoke and the crucial nature of individuation—becoming accountable for our shadow—to the work of ending racism and white supremacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis will be a valuable read for scholars and researchers of depth psychology, politics, sociology, social justice and diversity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDennis Pottenger\u003c\/b\u003e is a Jungian-oriented psychotherapist who works with trauma, identity, and diversity issues.
