With any luck, most who are will be inspired to search themselves and interrupt their contributions to racism."<br>--<i>Shelf Awareness</i>, Starred Review <p/>"A valuable guide . . .

Singleton, author of <i>Courageous Conversations About Race</i> <p/>"Robin DiAngelo demonstrates an all-too-rare ability to enter the racial conversation with complexity, nuance, and deep respect. Her writing establishes her mastery in accessing the imaginal, metaphoric mind where the possibility for transformation resides. With an unwavering conviction that change is possible, her message is clear: the incentive for white engagement in racial justice work is ultimately self-liberation."<br>--Leticia Nieto, coauthor of <i>Beyond Inclusion, Beyond Empowerment</i> <p/>"White fragility is the secret ingredient that makes racial conversations so difficult and achieving racial equity even harder. But by exposing it and showing us all--including white folks--how it operates and how it hurts us, individually and collectively, Robin DiAngelo has performed an invaluable service. An indispensable volume for understanding one of the most important (and yet rarely appreciated) barriers to achieving racial justice."<br>--Tim Wise, author of <i>White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son</i> <p/>"Robin DiAngelo's <i>White Fragility</i> brings language to the emotional structures that make true discussions about racial attitudes difficult. With clarity and compassion, DiAngelo allows us to understand racism as a practice not restricted to 'bad people.' In doing so, she moves our national discussions forward with new 'rules of engagement.' This is a necessary book for all people invested in societal change through productive social and intimate relationships."<br>--Claudia Rankine <p/>"<i>White Fragility</i> is a must-read for all educators because racism and racial disparities in access and opportunity continue to be an urgent issue in our schools. As educators, we need to summon up the courage and together act deliberately and honestly to develop the skills we need to engage in conversations about bias, race, and racism--especially our own."<br>--Val Brown, professional development facilitator and founder of #ClearTheAir
