Racism in the United States has existed since the colonial era, when white Americans were given legally or socially sanctioned privileges and rights while these same rights were denied to other races and minorities. Formal racial discrimination was largely banned by the mid-20th century and over time, it came to be perceived as being socially and morally unacceptable. In this book, (RACISM AND WHITE FRAGILITY) you will find a concise story of how racism took root in various parts of the world and how it has remained until today. The focus of this book is majorly on what we can do to stop racism and also teach our kids what they need to know to understand the situation and how they can play their part in removing racism now and in the future.
In this in-depth exploration, DiAngelo examines how white fragility develops, how it protects racial inequality, and what we can do to engage more constructively.
