Nice Racism : How Progressive White People Perpetuate Racial Harm by Robin DiAngelo
4.0
It was hard not to envision Robin is not also cocooned in her fantasy of being a Nice Progressive. I mean she didn't do what she keeps saying she should in the book, ask Black people what she should do first.
I can't imagine who she thinks her audience for this book would be, because every white person would have been defensive by her patronizing and holier than thou tone way before the end.
I did find it hugely informative, even though I also found myself sick of her by the end, which makes me wonder about my own blind spots.
4 stars for the content, in a "know thy enemy" kind of way
