Abstract

Heather McGee’s The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together (2021), provides a framework for understanding how racist ideologies and profit interests drive disadvantaged white individuals to reinforce the hegemony of white and wealthy Americans. This response paper ties McGee’s conceptualization of zero-sum thinking to the carceral space.
