摘要

今天社区面临的问题与谁属于谁以及谁有权要求某些身份标记有关。在当代的美国，白人是自己的偶像，因为除了那些被赋予合法性的、服务于自己利益的身份标记之外，白人试图使所有其他身份标记非法化。一个人不能把白作为一种种族结构来解构，除非他能阐明它的起源，以及它如何在社会中继续证明自己。对白人偶像的有效回应是接受圣餐身份;一种认为人类是由与他人的道德团结而被彻底定义的理论。

Deconstructing the Idolatry of white supremacy: Embracing a trinitarian identity as solidarity with others

The question that faces communities today has to do with who belongs and who has the right to claim certain identity markers. In contemporary United States of America, whiteness stands as an idol unto itself for it seeks to delegitimise all other identity markers except those it has given legitimacy, and which serve its own interests. One cannot deconstruct whiteness as a racial construct unless one sheds light on its origins and how it continues to validate itself in society. A valid response to the idol of whiteness is to embrace a eucharistic identity; one that speaks of the human as a being radically defined by ethical solidarity with others.
