White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo 🎧📖 Audiobook

DiAngelo describes white fragility to be a defensive response by a white person when their whiteness is highlighted or mentioned, or their racial worldview is challenged, whether this response is conscious or otherwise. Her fundamental thesis is that whites suffer from what she calls 'white fragility,' a posture of defensiveness and hypersensitivity that perpetuates white dominance. To many conservatives, the book will feel like it's set in an alternate universe from the one they inhabit. The New York Times best-selling book exploring the counterproductive reactions white people have when their assumptions about race are challenged, and how these reactions maintain racial inequality.
