As a white woman, ask yourself: are you upholding or fighting racism?
This work is much needed in this time of racial reckoning.
¿ Tyrone C. Howard, PhD, professor, UCLA Black Male Institute
Helps white women with two simultaneous character-forming tasks: healing from wounds of sexism and using the power we get from privilege to weaken racism in ourselves and in the world.
¿ Peggy McIntosh, PhD, author, White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack
Blending real-life stories, theory, and anti-racism practices, What's Up with White Women? is a practical guide for white women who are interested in becoming more effective in their cross-cultural, anti-racist work. The authors invite white women to understand their gendered role in systemic racism and their unique opportunity for action. Both frank and compassionate, coverage includes:
- Stories of white women's experiences with sexism, racism, and white privilege
- How white people harm People of Color and themselves by colluding with systems of oppression
- Why and how white women often hijack race conversations
- A powerful six-stage identity development model for self-reflection and growth
- Guiding questions and practical actions for strengthening anti-racism practices
- Tools to cultivate genuine partnerships with People of Color.
Positioned in a power hierarchy between white men and People of Color, it's time for white women to step up and take concrete actions that support equity and justice for all people.
Filled with poignant, powerful, and honest stories, this book offers a toolkit for white women to become more effective racial justice allies. Highly recommended.
¿ Paul Kivel, author, Uprooting Racism
Reading through the developmental process leading from Immersion to Integration, I saw decades of my interactions with white women finally making sense!
