White Fragility
This book explores the concept of "White Fragility," a term coined by the author to describe the often-unconscious defensiveness white people exhibit when confronted with racial stress. It examines how societal structures and cultural norms in North America create an environment that insulates white individuals from race-based discomfort, leading to a diminished capacity to tolerate racial dialogue. The book aims to help readers understand and navigate these reactions to foster more constructive conversations across racial divides.
