Publisher's summary

This is an audiobook version of the paperback title published by Corwin Press.

Acclaimed author and co-founder of the Abolitionist Teaching movement, Bettina L. Love, underscores the need for this project as follows: Racism does not exist without Whiteness. Whiteness is at the center of the reproduction of structural inequality. White folx truly concerned about understanding racism, about being in solidarity with dark folx, about building community, and who are interested in intersectional justice have to start with learning about Whiteness and how it functions. Perhaps the greatest barrier to learning about Whiteness is that white people are so rarely in dialogue with one another around Whiteness. In the words of authors, Michael and Bartoli, This is a book for White people who identify as anti-racist, but who don't know how to talk with other White people, to call them in to a movement and an anti-racist practice, rather than call them out in a way that pushes them away. An alternative title to the book is, "I'm Fragile. Now what?" It is an indirect response to the important but incomplete work on White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo, in which people can learn that they are fragile, but not how to move beyond it. The DiAngelo book, which dominated the nation's bestseller lists through most of 2020, is primarily descriptive in nature. It underscores the characteristics and etiology of White Fragility but provides little in the way of concrete action steps. The proposed book is intended to close the knowing-doing gap by guiding white educators and others who want to walk an antiracist path and invite other white people to do the same. Although the lead author is rooted in K-12 professional practice, the book has the potential for cross-over into other markets including parents and others with the desire to become antiracists and white allies.
