Abstract
[...]we provide the performative dialogue narrated with the experiential, intellectual, and emotional panel exchanges of six CWS or CS scholars, including two scholars of Color and four White scholars. [...]via the dialogues' emergent contours, Pauli & Jim discuss the politically-germane convolutions, or tension-filled coils, that reveal the fallen impossibilities of White allyship. For those initiated in CWS, the controversy boomerangs from the past. Since the 1980s, conservative critiques (e.g., A. Bloom, 1987; H. Bloom, 1994; Hirsch, 1988; Kimball, 1990) like the Manhattan Institute's have sought to insulate "liberalism," the "Western canon," "the humanities," "academic disciplines," "race neutrality," "positivist social science," and "objectivity" from emancipatory human sciences born of Civil Rights and anti-colonial movements. [...]we understand our dialogue certainly proceeds against-the-grain and under the threat of the neoliberal quaternity looming large within the rising tide of interlocking-multinational White nationalist fascisms (Amin, 2014; Grossberg, 2018).
