Abstract

Denne artikel er et opråb – og et nødråb – til de af os, for hvem det hvide privilegie kan være lige så usynligt, som det kan være behageligt. Med afsæt i et kritisk etnografisk inspireret feltarbejde gennemført i to danske børnehaver, stiller artiklen skarpt på affektive responsers ’gøren’ i relation til hvid forskerpositionalitet. Artiklen viser, hvordan hvidhedens affektive ladninger er socialt cirkulerende og magtfulde i deres orienteringer af kroppe, steder og (forsker)praksisser og dermed bidrager til opretholdelsen af den (u)synlige hvide norm. Artiklen argumenterer for, hvorfor affektive responser, som for eksempel vrede og usikkerhed, er gode at tænke med, når forskningens ambition er at forstyrre diskursivt medierede forståelser af normativ hvidhed, der optræder som en situeret del af racialiseret forskerpositionalitet.
