Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
While we are all familiar with the lives of prominent Black civil rights leaders, few of us have a sense of what is entailed in developing a White antiracist identity. Few of us can name the White activists who joined the struggle against discrimination, let alone understand the complexities, stresses and contradictions of doing this work while benefiting from the privileges they enjoyed as Whites. This book fills that gap by vividly presenting in their own words the personal stories, experiences and reflections of fifteen prominent White antiracists. They recount the circumstances that led them to undertake this work, describe key moments and insights along their journeys, and frankly admit their continuing lapses and mistakes. They make it clear that confronting oppression (including their own prejudices) whether about race, sexual orientation, ability or other differences is a lifelong process of learning. The chapters in this book are full of inspirational and lessonrich stories about the expanding awareness of White social justice advocates and activists who grappled with their White privilege and their early socialization and decided to work against structural injustice and personal prejudice. The authors are also selfcritical, questioning their motivations and commitments, and acknowledging that as Whites and possessors of other privileged identities they continue to benefit from White privilege even as they work against it.This is an eyeopening book for anyone who wants to understand what it means to be White and the reality of what is involved in becoming a White antiracist and social justice advocate; is interested in the paths taken by those who have gone before; and wants to engage reflectively and critically in this difficult and important work.Contributing AuthorsWarren J.
