This is their "bible". Ignore its warning at your own peril-----Universities across America want students to read this book. We did it for you.

Universities across America want students to read this book. We did it for you.
"Amid a nationwide call for anti-racist education, White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo has gained massive popularity and university endorsement.
...Campus Reform decided to find out why.
The angle that sets this book apart from similar texts is likely its development of “white fragility” as the catalyst of all racial conflict. 
See the source imageWhite fragility, according to DiAngelo, is a phenomenon that occurs when people of color confront white people on race-related issues. 
Categorically, white people will react with “a range of defensive responses,” which include “emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt and behaviors such as argumentation, silence, and withdrawal from the stress-inducing situation” and which “work to reinstate white equilibrium as they repel the challenge, return our racial comfort, and maintain our dominance within the racial hierarchy.”
...In fact, it is a powerful means of white racial control and the protection of white advantage.”
Essentially, she argues that white people’s distaste for racial confrontation is responsible for perpetuating white supremacy.
...DiAngelo makes the case that “racism is deeply embedded in the fabric of our society,” saying that all racist acts stem from institutional racism. 
This means that “only whites can be racist” because “in the United States, only whites have the collective social and institutional power and privilege over people of color.” 
Image result for Robin DiAngelo...Not only have all white people demonstrated racism, DiAngelo says,  but they are doomed to do so indefinitely. 
She suggests that there is no way for white people to grow up without being racist...
...Another concept DiAngelo redefines is that of white supremacy.
...all white behavior can be categorized as not only racist but also as white supremacist. 
“White is a false identity, an identity of false superiority. 
...Thus, white identity depends in particular on the projection of inferiority onto blacks and the oppression this inferior status justifies for the white collective.”
The book’s primary points, distilled:
  • White people must acknowledge the grim consequences of their actions, although they are far too frail to do so
  • White people are responsible to repair a system in which racism runs rampant, although nothing they can do will ever be enough
  • White guilt is unhelpful because it does not advance any real change, although white people must reflect seriously on the extent of what they have done
  • White people should be appalled at what they have brought about, although 'white women’s tears' only exacerbate the situation and reinforce white privilege
You really should read the entire article to see the insanity that rages in American progressivism.
