At the DIY Cultures Zinefair last Sunday 24 May 2015 we asked people to spin the Wheel of Whiteness and to respond to the action oriented white identity the Vitruvian Man points to. Some tweets from the day:

Here are a few responses:
DL:”what is racism?” WhitePerson: “anything can b racism, from men to women, from human to animals, its the same thing right?” #whitology

The Wheel of Whiteness is based on Barnor Hesse’s 8 action oriented white identities
The responses will be collated into a zine some time in the near future.
