1. Introduction: Entering the Fray -- 2. Reparations and the Problem of Whiteness -- 3. Fair Play and Political Responsibility -- 4. Fair Play and Reparative Justice -- 5. Three Alternative Approaches -- 6. Fair Play as Political Inroad -- 7. Conclusion: Clearing Ground.

"[...] a compelling defense of Black reparations that combines a new account of fair play with cross-disciplinary insights about whiteness. Frigault carefully carves into the discursive space a political inroad designed to negotiate white fragility by steering clear of identity- or complicity-based arguments for reparations, focusing instead on the basic obligation to relinquish structural advantages. A must-read for any political theorist and philosopher interested in reparations." -Candice Delmas, Northeastern University, USA "Joseph Frigault has written an important and courageous book. Black reparations in the US have met the hostility not only of white people insensitive to racial justice, but also of those who would otherwise define themselves as progressive and in favour of racial equality. Frigault's argument about fair play offers a powerful way for all Americans to appreciate the necessity and feasibility of Black reparations." -Alasia Nuti, University of York, UK "Built on cutting-edge scientific research, Joseph Frigault's tremendous book makes a compelling case that opposition to race-conscious policies is grounded in an entrenched and entangled set of social, cognitive, and affective habits and ideologies. His defense of reparations through the principles of fair play offers a vital set of tools for engaging the American imagination. We must not just hope but fight for his approach to be explored in the labs of lived experience." -Alex Madva, Cal Poly Pomona, USA Focused on some of the most conspicuous forms of social, psychological, and ideological resistance to the very idea of reparations, Whiteness, Fair Play, and Reparation develops a new fairness-based argument designed to help sensitize opponents to the force of more familiar calls for racial redress. Drawing on a range of empirical literature on whites' attitudes toward race-conscious policy, and related sociological analyses of the white moral imagination, the book argues that the lens of "fair play" can help provide socially and morally threatened whites with a psychologically viable route toward appreciating their personal enmeshment within structures of racial hierarchy. Joseph Frigault is Visiting Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Claremont McKenna College.
