OAKLAND, Calif. - Californer -- Oakland, CA – Author, scholar, and educator Dante King announces the release of his new book, The Psychopathy of Whiteness, a bold and interdisciplinary work that reframes racism not as a moral failure, but as a deeply embedded psycho-legal and neuro-political condition cultivated over centuries.

Building on his earlier work, Diagnosing Whiteness & Anti-Blackness, King advances the thesis that whiteness functions as a socially sanctioned psychopathy sustained through denial, projection, and moral inversion. The book argues that racism is not episodic or accidental, but structurally reinforced through law, religion, education, media, and state power.

Drawing from history, constitutional law, psychology, neuroscience, and epigenetics, The Psychopathy of Whiteness traces how colonial conquest and Western legal systems fused to create a civilization organized around racial hierarchy. King contends that American law, including U.S. Supreme Court rulings, has repeatedly reengineered racial dominance under the language of neutrality and colorblindness.

"This book is not just an examination of history — it is an invitation to confront the psychological, legal, and institutional architecture that has normalized anti-Blackness in America. My hope is that readers walk away not only informed, but transformed — with the courage to interrogate power, protect truth, and build systems rooted in dignity and accountability," states King.

Importantly, the book distinguishes whiteness from white people, defining it instead as an identity structure and faith system that demands innocence, suppresses historical truth, and relies on Black suffering to preserve power. Through this lens, racial backlash politics, civil rights erosion, and racialized policing are understood as predictable symptoms of an untreated national disorder.

One of the book's most original contributions is its integration of neurobiology and epigenetics, arguing that racial violence has not only shaped institutions but altered nervous systems across generations. Racism, King asserts, is structural and embodied.

Rejecting symbolic reform, the book calls for clinical-level interventions at individual, institutional, and national levels, including racial reckoning, material repair, and negotiated power shifts. Healing, King argues, requires truth and accountability.

Unflinching and morally precise, The Psychopathy of Whiteness challenges readers to confront whether America is willing to diagnose the system it refuses to name.
