> The entire article is based on online group dynamics over people trying to figure out how to come to grips with historically ignored problems. You have to ignore quite a lot of history to come to the conclusion that these problems were historically ignored. > I fail to feel outraged by this process. Maybe if you end up on the receiving end you'll feel differently? > Is "White Fragility" without criticism? Probably not, I think it is a fantastic book, but it scares the bejeebers out of some people and we get instagram drama and articles like this which I interpret as another attempt at purity (trying to outsmart "wokeness"). Robin D'Angelo has made some deranged, outlandish assertions, and instead of defending them she simply follows up with more outlandish assertions. I had the pleasure of having a non-white person explain things about "white people" that she'd learned from that book that were patently false. |
