White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism by Robin DiAngelo

challenging informative reflective tense slow-paced

5.0

My favourite takeaway:
"1. How, where, and when you give me feedback is irrelevant - it is the feedback I want and need. Understanding that it is hard to give, I will take it any way I can get it. From my position of social, cultural, and institutional white power and privilege, I am perfectly safe and I can handle it. If I cannot handle it, it's on me to build my racial stamina.
2. Thank you."
3. I have some work to do with my white woman's tears.
