But I'm Always WHITE!, 2022

The question isn’t whether today’s students are being indoctrinated but rather when the indoctrination began. Pages from out-of-use public school library books that white-washed history serve as the background for each piece. Wheatpasted on top and selectively removed is the scene from Astounding Fancy #15 where Peter Privldege exclaims, “But I’m always WHITE!”, instead of always right.

 

Peter Privledge represents white privilege and fragility. β€‹He is a well meaning but oblivious and flawed character. He originated in an earlier work.
