Robin DiAngelo, an antichrist educator in this vital and beautiful book illuminated the phenomenon of white fragility. She allowed us all to understand all racism in the form of a practice that is not restricted as such to the ‘bad people. Referring to the different types of defensive moves that white people make when they are challenged based on race, then white fragility is characterized by different emotions. Those include the emotions of fear, anger, guilt, and other behaviors that include silence and argumentation. These behaviors function to reinstate the white racial equilibrium and then it also limits any productive type of cross-racial dialogue.
In this deep exploration of the subject matter, the author beautifully examined how the white fragility would develop, how it protects the inequality of racism, and what we could do the engage more productively.
White Fragility in a few words can be described as instructive, thoughtful, and comprehensive. This short book will find listeners quite impressed both in terms of its complexity and scope.
