Long before the widespread success of the 2018 book White
Fragility: Why It's So Hard For White People To Talk About Racism,
Robin DiAngelo was breaking with white solidarity and writing,
speaking, and teaching on the relationship among white supremacy,
structural racism, and white identity. In this volume, DiAngelo has
gathered a selection of her groundbreaking works leading up to
White Fragility. Speaking as a white person to her fellow white
people, she seamlessly blends the personal with the political. The
result is an engaging and provocative analysis of the
sociopolitical forces of race that shape our lives. Taking up
familiar ideologies such as individualism and meritocracy, she
breaks down how these concepts function to protect and obscure
structural racism. Collectively, these essays show how racism
infuses our society and its institutions; it is a system that goes
well beyond individual intentions or conscious acts of meanness. By
changing the question from if we are part of systemic racism to how
each of us play a part, DiAngelo's body of work provides a
transformative framework for white identity and antiracist action.
