Raced

McKinney presents a large number of accounts by her students that describe white people coming to realise they are raced.

In fact, as Jordan's analysis attests, whites constructed raced identities for Africans founded not so much on their assumptions about a color but more on the various ways in which they experienced life alongside their darker-skinned neighbors.

In this study, Mulberry Bush Nursery took exclusively fee-paying, predominantly white, middle class children from three months to three years old. This provided a site for highly classed and 'raced' relationships between nursery worker and mother, where the nursery worker is positioned in an inferior position of servitude to the professional middle-class mother.
