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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robin Diangelo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0807047414\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807047415\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Beacon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/26\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.90w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/23\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/15\/2018 pg. 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/13\/2018","brand":"Robin Diangelo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44054086942975,"sku":"9780807047415","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1fd39de7-bbae-490c-a149-f06cfaf2c5fd.jpg?v=1685027911","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/white-fragility-robin-diangelo-9780807047415","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
