The beast, white supremacy is about variegated controversial topics on race relations. It delves into the world of White supremacy, a term used to capture the all encompassing centrality and assumed superiority, and the practices based on this assumption. This book builds on the premise of race relations with the onus of dismantling some of the existing biases and prejudices, white privilege and fragility and to prompt white people to take action on the inflictions on Black people.This book helps to understand better and take the concept of white supremacy even deeper into a conversation by offering the historical and cultural contexts in relation to the contemporary issues, underlining the connectivity by providing the language to comprehend the concept of white supremacy and its implications. In a grand scheme, white supremacy is a prominent ideological phenomenon in Europe with social and political implications, where right wing governments instrumentalize institutions to further their ideologies for political gain. Europe is reliving its dark history of Holocaust. The unfolding events since the refugee crisis of 2015 have exhibited a strong reminder that the slogan never again which was meant to circumvent the horrors of the past is being compromised. Recent events in Europe have shown much of desperate situations right from violent attacks on immigrants to lack of acknowledgement and denial of racism. The reasons are also different, from ideologies as nationalism to prejudice towards minorities.
