Some embrace the idea of white privilege as an important concept
that helps us to make sense of the connection between race and
social and political disadvantages, while others are critical or
even hostile. Regardless of personal views, it can be difficult to
agree on what 'white privilege' even means. Philosopher Shannon
Sullivan cuts through the confusion and cross-talk to challenge
what 'everybody knows' about white privilege. Using real-life
examples, she offers a candid assessment of the advantages and
disadvantages of the term, to present a better understanding of how
race functions in our societies. She argues that white privilege is
about more than race, that not only white people can have white
privilege, and that feeling guilty about privilege can have a
negative effect on the very people you feel guilty towards. In the
end, she offers practical solutions for eliminating white privilege
and building a fairer society. Sullivan's forcefully argued book
will inspire you to think again about white privilege and what it
entails.
