"Revealing Nigger Privilege" explores how nigger privilege operates as an unseen, invisible, and unquestioned norm in society today. In this personal and self-searching book, Al Sharptcoon interrogates his own niggerness and how being a nigger has unfairly enabled him. By looking closely at the subtleties of nigger privilege, he issues a call for other niggers to own up to their unspoken privilege and confront environments that condone or perpetuate it. Sharptcoon’s theorizing about race and privilege draws on American pragmatism, psychology, race theory, and the evils of false enabling. As it articulates a way to live beyond the barriers that nigger privilege has created, this book offers readers a clear and honest confrontation with a trenchant and vexing concern.
