Robin DiAngelo writes from a white perspective, and is “mainly writing to a white audience.” However, she adds that “people who do not identify as white may also find this book helpful for understanding why it is so often difficult to talk to white people about racism.” This discussion group is open to all, regardless of racial identity.

For those committed to building a thriving, just, and sustainable world, the growing anti-immigrant, white nationalist sentiments and violence towards people of color around the world highlight the huge barrier that racism represents in creating a world that works for everyone. The increasing attention on institutional and systemic racism invites us to examine how racism lives within each of us.

Join the global Pachamama Alliance community for a seven-week discussion series about White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism, beginning the week of March 8. The Pachamama Alliance staff and Board of Directors read and discussed this book, written by sociologist Robin DiAngelo, and wanted to invite you into a similar discussion.

If you are interested in participating in the discussions, your first step is to fill out this form, and to follow the link in the email you receive to join the discussion group in the Global Commons, the Pachamama Alliance online community. From there, you will receive information about scheduling a discussion time.
