Through a textual analysis of diversity management articles, the author illustrates how one of these perspectives, interrogating whiteness, works to name, unmask, and de-center whiteness, bringing to light hidden assumptions about difference. The second perspective, re-centering whiteness, appears progressive because difference is recognized, yet ultimately, whiteness remains center stage, resulting in superficial organizational change. The third perspective, masking whiteness, protects whiteness as an invisible norm, actively upholding white privilege. The author discusses the implications of this examination of whiteness for research and practice.

Standpoint epistemology, which assumes people’s experiences are relevant to the ways they know, allows the apparently unmarked, neutral category of whiteness to be seen as one standpoint among many. To encourage a useful discussion of race, key terms are situated linguistically and historically, background is given on paradigms for thinking about race, and there is a consideration of the consequences of whiteness and blackness. I examine what writers say about race when it is not the topic about which they claim to write. The organizational life of the discipline and authorship is explored. I then turn to the organizational literature for further illustration of whiteness as unmarked, stereotypical examples, and distancing language.
