This is an important observation, and if folks want to really know about whiteness they do need to read deeper. But I think this still falls on the side of what Zeus Leonardo (2013) called "white whiteness studies" in its centering of white scholars. https://twitter.com/JBooth_history/status/1277416990840434688
Not slamming the work of any of the scholars in this thread. Just saying, I believe firmly we've got to keep putting scholars of color -- and particularly Black scholars -- first in this matter.
Fwiw, I've learned the most about whiteness from: W.E.B. DuBois, Toni Morrison, James Baldwin, Cheryl Harris, George Yancy, Charles Mills, Frantz Fanon, Zeus Leonardo, and a host of CRT scholars of color.
