Synopsis:Dyer introduces 'whiteness' as a specific ethnic category and draws attention to the fact that - unlike 'blackness' - 'whiteness' has always been treated as an 'invisible' racial position. He discusses the phenomenon with special reference to the films "Jezebel" (USA 1938), "Simba" (UK 1955) and "Night of the Living Dead" (USA 1969).
