White Fragility

Summary:

Did you know white people often struggle to discuss racism?

In "White Fragility," Robin DiAngelo explores why and its impact on addressing racial inequality.

DiAngelo coined "white fragility" to describe defensiveness in white people when confronted with racial issues.

This fragility stems from living in a society where whiteness is the norm, causing discomfort when challenged on race.

DiAngelo emphasizes recognizing biases and privileges to foster productive discussions and dismantle systemic racism.

She suggests white people should educate themselves on racism, listen to people of color, and examine their complicity.

By acknowledging white fragility, we can break barriers, create a more inclusive society, and enable meaningful change.
