Submitted by slutgamestrong in books

Hey y'all. So I've been looking for some new books to put on my list and have been hearing a lot of back and forth on the book White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo. Some say its great, some say it sucks. So thought I'd ask here to see if anyone has read it and what they think. Thanks in advance!

Don't know, haven't read it, but Race Traitor by Noel Ignatiev might be another good option for reading on whiteness if you're looking

Not white but support Race Traitor. I think DiAngelo's book is aiight. Honwstly you can get more our of her numerous talks though. She doesnt do or show anything in the book that doesn't come out later in some other fashion.

Ill check it out, thanks! Thats essentially the stuff I'm looking for. I have a few of Angela Davis' books which I love, but looking for some more specifically on whiteness. As a white person I think they'll be good and helpful reads, so if you have any more suggestions let me know!
