This audiobook explores the history of white race concepts, challenging the idea that whiteness is an inherent, natural category. Tracing over two thousand years of Western civilization, it examines how notions of race and beauty were constructed to justify power and social hierarchy, particularly emphasizing the rise of whiteness from antiquity through modern times. With insights into scientific, political, and cultural developments, it reveals that the idea of a singular white race is a recent invention shaped by historical and social forces.
