White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism
|
Because nobody talks, they either want to attack with all sorts of off the wall generalizations or rediculous personal accusations. On the other side, sick of defending themselves from the ridiculous bullshit charges of being the problem.
Since when does a book on the NYT best seller list represent more than the authors opinion, and maybe half the people who read it.
Quote:
In a 2019 nationwide survey, 86% of white evangelical Protestants and 70% of both white mainline Protestants and white Catholics said that the “Confederate flag is more a symbol of Southern pride than of racism”.
Nearly 66% of white Christians over all said that killings of African-American men by the police are isolated incidents rather than part of a broader pattern of mistreatment.
Over 60% white Christians disagreed with the statement that “generations of slavery and discrimination have created conditions that make it difficult for blacks to work their way out of the lower class.”
