SUMMARY
Historian and former Princeton University professor Nel Painter said that: “White identity in America is ideology, not biology.”
This runs contrary to the belief most Americans have about race. But this is a day which demands new thinking and the reevaluation of old concepts.
We believe one of those concepts is the definition of whiteness, and by looking closely at this word, we can help America and the Accounting profession reach its true potential.
