Microaggressions, Whiteness and the Politics of Exclusion

Abstract

When I think of ‘the university,’ the image that immediately springs to mind is Jordan Peele’s brilliantly chilling film ‘Get Out.’ When the movie first released I was keen to watch it, and it has stayed on my mind ever since. The film is about a young black male photographer (Chris), who visits his girlfriends white middle-class parents for the weekend.
