Bound For Justice

This week we review White Fragility written by Robin DiAngelo.

White Fragility was published in 2018. It is described as a “vital, necessary, and beautiful book”
(Dyson) in which DiAngelo explains the concept of white fragility and “allows us to understand racism as a practice not restricted to ‘bad people’ (Rankine).

DiAngelo has been a consultant and trainer for over 20 years on issues of racial and social justice. She has a PhD in Multicultural Education from the University of Washington in Seattle. DiAngelo is also Affiliate Associate Professor of Education at the University of Washington where teaches courses in Multicultural Teaching, Inter-group Dialogue Facilitation, Cultural Diversity & Social Justice, and Anti-Racist Education.
