"The ideas discussed in The White Card are always compelling. . . . The lines of an urgent debate are clearly and thoroughly drawn."–The Nation
"The footsteps of giants are often soft, we hardly hear them coming. But determined to leave a mark on the landscape, Claudia Rankine is a giant–generating a quiet storm as she probes the extraordinary contemporary moments in which we live.
The White Card is a flash of brilliance–a hand well played. Read it and weep!"–
Carrie Mae Weems "Claudia Rankine's captivating and seductive provocations about modern life have moved seamlessly in and out of several genres. As a dramatist, her searing mind and sharp sense of humor give us much to debate, ponder, and love about the American race story when we need it most."
–Anna Deavere Smith
