stolen from Robin DiAngelo

(in case the title of the slide looks spooky to you:)

Whiteness studies is the study of the structures that produce white privilege,[1] the examination of what whiteness is when analyzed as a race, a culture, and a source of systemic racism,[2] and the exploration of other social phenomena generated by the societal compositions, perceptions and group behaviors of white people.[3]

Robin DiAngelo has an amazing book called White Fragility. It's not super thick, and unfortunately everyone who desperately needs to read it will refuse to even look at the title.
