»The book breaks down stereotypical ideas of white, mainstream German culture, in which people with a skin colour other than white feel like objects of science and politics. Analysing and standardising “others” without their participation reinforces social prejudices which are considered given realities. The editors promote heterogeneity and pluralism with an aim to blur existing categories of social order, such as gender, origin, social class or sexual orientation.« – Alexandra Janda, D+C, 11/2008
