3 quotes from White Fragility

"Racism is not a dichotomy; it is a continuum. A person can be both racist and anti-racist at the same time, and it is our job to recognize and reflect on our position within that continuum."
"White people in the United States live in a social environment that protects and insulates them from race-based stress. This insulation leads to a lack of understanding of the racial experiences of people of color."
"The single most important factor in how we respond to claims of racism is the socialization we have received in a white-dominated society. We are conditioned to react to racial stress with defensiveness, and that's what white fragility is about."
