书籍简介：

The New York Times best-selling book exploring the counterproductive reactions white people have when their assumptions about race are challenged, and how these reactions maintain racial inequality. · In this “vital, necessary, and beautiful book” (Michael Eric Dyson), antiracist educator Robin DiAngelo deftly illuminates the phenomenon of white fragility and “allows us to understand racism as a practice not restricted to ‘bad people’ (Claudia Rankine). Referring to the defensive moves that white people make when challenged racially, white fragility is characterized by emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt, and by behaviors including argumentation and silence. These behaviors, in turn, function to reinstate white racial equilibrium and prevent any meaningful cross-racial dialogue. In this in-depth exploration, DiAngelo examines how white fragility develops, how it protects racial inequality, and what we can do to engage more constructively.

书友短评：

@ philasophie 论述的很有道理，racism归根结底不仅仅是个体的行为，而是已经固化的伴随机制和体系形成且日渐成熟的结构性思维。白人在面对racism这个话题时所表现出来的defensiveness也好，逃避心态也罢，出发点和最终的结果都是巩固white solidarity。能做到完全不racism可太难了，这大概不只是白人的问题，即便不愿意承认或者无意识，任何人都会对他人有prejudice，也不是说由你是好人还是坏人决定的，白人也没有必要因为racism的存在的感觉guilty，重要的是做到能够冷静思考并勇敢面对吧，少数族裔的要求没有很多，你表现出想要行动、改变和互相了解的意愿，大多数人就已经很欣慰了：） @ 迷阳 办公室白人同事强烈推荐的一本书 阅读过程中作者观点与我的发生冲突时 因作者总是避重就轻不用论据支撑她的观点而屡屡生气 看完后对生活中不同形态的racism有了更清晰的概念 按作者的划分我大约是color blindness的racism 我理解的 作者认为不区别对待不同race仍然算racism 要给与过多帮助和支持来弥补过去历史造成的社会整体racism才可以 在我看来矫枉过正 作者又认为people of color给的feedback要全盘接受 辩驳就是fragile 这让我很困惑 所以只以被affected的人的感受为黄金准则么 虽然书中很多其他例子如白人女性的眼泪等确实如此 但该书也就是引起注意却没有很好的说服人吧 生活中存在的其他年龄性别等歧 也许理解什么是公平才是理解这些的基础 @ 小宝 因为读书会勉强去读了。这书以极烂的学术能力说了三句话：美国社会问题有很强的结构性种族主义作祟；结构性种族主义的力量使得自己不可见和正常化；一定程度社会和情感冲突在挑战这种种族主义过程中是必要的也是自然的。这三句话从抽象意义上来说没什么错，但是这书对学术资料的引用和批判至少在我校是没法毕业的。被捧这么高，还有读书会里好多政坛大佬说啊啊啊好促进我反思啊就意味着在美国推动免费大学教育简直刻不容缓。。。。。
