ALT This talk discusses the privilege associated with self-identifying and being identified as white in Latin America. “Whiteness” is understood broadly as an entrenched global system and considered in the intersections between race (white or light mestizo) and class (upper and middle class). The talk argues that to be “white” in Latin America is not only about skin color or phenotype, but also a way of acting in the world that provides advantages to some groups over others. More specifically, it explores the privilege of claiming to protect others and speaking for them through a discussion of the concepts of paternalism, maternalism and ventriloquism.
