Robin DiAngelo Is The “Vanilla Ice” Of Anti-Racism

The “racial reckoning” prompted by Floyd’s death was the first time many white people had thought about racism. It was the first time they’d questioned their attitudes and behaviour. It was certainly the first time they’d thought to read a book on the subject. And so, as those newly race-conscious readers set out to learn about the black experience, they looked at those eight books…and chose the only one written by a white woman. Robin DiAngelo’s “White Fragility” has singlehandedly confused millions of people about race. It manages to talk down to black people and white people, all whilst offering nothing in the way of solutions. And seeing as she’s is about to release a sequel called “Nice Racism”, this feels like a good time to do some damage limitation. <a href="https://medium.com/illumination-curated/robin-diangelo-is-the-vanilla-ice-of-anti-racism-c163a76655f5">Click Here</a>
