Brilliant and Thought-Provoking Work to Wake White People Up
I recently had the privilege of reading White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism by Robin DiAngelo. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the history of racism in America and its continuing impact on our society. It is a powerful and moving account of the author's own experiences with racism, and it offers a unique perspective on the challenges that we face as a nation.
DiAngelo is a white woman who has spent her career working with white people on issues of race. She has a deep understanding of the ways that white people are socialized into racism, and she is able to articulate these concepts in a clear and accessible way. In White Fragility, DiAngelo explores the various ways that white people react to conversations about race. She argues that white people often become defensive or uncomfortable when they are confronted with their own racism, and that this defensiveness can make it difficult to have productive conversations about race.

DiAngelo also discusses the concept of white privilege. She argues that white people benefit from a number of unearned privileges simply because of their race, and that these privileges can make it difficult for white people to understand the experiences of people of color. DiAngelo's book is a challenging read, but it is an essential read for anyone who wants to understand the role that race plays in our society. It is a powerful and moving account of the author's own experiences with racism, and it offers a unique perspective on the challenges that we face as a nation.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning more about race and racism. It is a well-written, thought-provoking, and important work that can help us to better understand the world around us.
