Matt Taibbi has a good review of this book out there. He tears it apart pretty well. One of the best journalists of our times IMO, especially on Financial issues.

What makes me angry is that a few years ago I remember him telling me that he's never experienced racism. Now all of a sudden he's turned into this brainwashed woke *******.

The guy that wrote "How to be an antiracist" went to my high school srs. I downloaded it on audiobook off the strength of that.

I don't think the white fragility book will actually help people see a different perspective. It may help the whites who want to become "better allies" in some aspects though. People are just trying to do what they see is right.

I don't think saying all whites are fragile will help but I know it's a controversial subject to many

What the fukk is white fragility?

Edit: I looked it up

noun
the tendency among members of the dominant white cultural group to have a defensive, wounded, angry, or dismissive response to evidence of racism.

The author of that book got rekt on NPR of all places, by a black Columbia University professor of all people:

https://www.npr.org/2020/07/20/89294...e?ft=nprml&f=3
Columbia University professor and linguist John McWhorter, who is Black, echoes that criticism, writing in The Atlantic that the book "openly infantilized Black people" and "simply dehumanized us."
It is racist, and I don't mean that Robin DiAngelo is a racist. I'm not calling her that. But I'm saying that if you write a book that teaches that Black people's feelings must be stepped around to an exquisitely sensitive degree that hasn't been required of any human beings, you're condescending to Black people. In supposing that Black people have no resilience, you are saying that Black people are unusually weak. You're saying that we are lesser. You're saying that we, because of the circumstances of American social history, cannot be treated as adults. And in the technical sense, that's discriminatory.
Virtue is its own reward.

Maybe because it's bull**** and not a real thing?

I don't think telling people about fire breathing dragons will help anyone either - Because they are not real

I would go further than McWhorter and say that DiAngelo is in fact a racist.

White leftwing females, especially from academia, are the most racist and anti-intellectual people in America and the West.

Anyone that subscribes to any racial ideology or view point of the world, is borderline retarded.

Of course don't be friends with someone that lumps people together based on skin color. It's one thing to joke about and mess around with stereotypes with people, but if people actually live their life through a racial lens, they're gone. There are too many cultures within a skin color to even think about generalizing a race. That's called laziness and idiocy.

Move on boyo. You'll be better without someone who defines you purely by racial generalizations. This goes for any race towards any race.

Imagine being white and suggesting a book called “Black Fragility”

If the left didn’t have double standards they wouldn’t have any at all.
Horny.

Liberals: We are against racism!

Also liberals: Let me write this book about how sensitive white people are. But you cant write one about any other race/ethnicity because that makes you racist

Liberals: OMG...Candace Owens shouldnt put down her own people when criticizing

Also Liberals: OMG...white people are so sensitive. So fragile

The problem with modern liberals is theyONLYaddress racism when they can blame it on white people. That's the only type of racism that exists to them. Nothing is going to ever change if both sides only want the other side to change. Conservatives want liberals to stop doing this and that, liberals want conservatives to stop doing this and that but WHITE FUKKING LIBERALS.....they are here sayingblack people can do this but people cant do exactly the same thing

-Black face vs white face (Black face is terrible but no one ever said anything about the Wayans Bros inWhite Chicks)
-N-word (if it's so bad when a white person says it, then no one should ever say it. but hypocrisy prevails)
-Dredlocks
-Rap music (Not a major issue now but i was told in high school that I shouldnt listen to rap music and have a loud system in my truck because i'm white)
-Shouldnt wear certain shoes (played Bball in middle school and had a really nice pair of Nikes and was told i didnt deserve them because i was white and they were gonna steal them)

And the list can probably go one and on. If we GENUINELY want change, then views have to be held consistent across the board. If you hate trump because of his epstein connection, then you better not vote for biden. If you claim to hate racism, dont just shrug and say "now you know how it feels" when a white person says they experienced racism. If you TRULY hate how some cops take it too far and kill civilians, then speak up for all the civilians killed. I cant be the only one who wants change

Ultimately, i feel like the MSM is primarily to blame. They, of course, have their agenda to push. but they are gatekeepers of knowledge and unfortunately, people still trust them. CNN settled out of court with Nick Sandman and others. Not to mention they threatened to doxx and sue a 16 year old for a meme he made. ABC and NBC sat on the Epstein and Weinstein story because it would have hurt Democrat images at the time. I dont know of any fox news issues like these but there is an easily accessible list of their controversies.
