ORTIZ-PIEDRAHITA, Vanessa. Subjective construction of whiteness by Young university students: a comparative study. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2020, vol.18, n.1, pp.183-206. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.18109.

This article forms part of interdisciplinary and colonial studies on whiteness and uses interrelated categories such as social class, ethnicity and race to explore the subjective construction of whiteness by young university students in Brasilia and Medellín. Based on a qualitative and comparative methodological approach, it was possible to capture the significant universe of university students who participate in the study. The author presents reflections and conclusions on the performative and sometimes contradictory process that implies recognizing oneself through the values and social privileges of whiteness in academic and extra-curricular spaces.
