Histoire
Women including Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Margaret Sanger, and Sheryl Sandberg are commonly celebrated as leaders of feminism. Yet they have fought for the few, not the many. As award-winning scholar Kyla Schuller argues, their White feminist politics dispossess the most marginalized to liberate themselves. In The Trouble with White Women, Schuller brings to life the 200-year counter-history of Black, Indigenous, Latina, poor, queer, and trans women pushing back against White feminists and uniting to dismantle systemic injustice.

Few would disagree that inclusion is both the right thing to do and good for business. Then why are we so terrible at it? If we believe in the morality and the profitability of including people of diverse and underestimated backgrounds in the workplace, why don't we do it? Because, explains Ruchika Tulshyan in this eye-opening book, we don't realize that inclusion takes awareness, intention, and regular practice. Inclusion doesn't just happen; we have to work at it. Tulshyan presents inclusion best practices, showing how leaders and organizations can meaningfully promote inclusion.

An essential work that centers colonial and historical trauma in a framework for healing, Decolonizing Therapy illuminates that all therapy is—and always has been—inherently political. To better understand the mental health oppression and institutional violence that exists today, we must become familiar with the root of disembodiment from our histories, homelands, and healing practices. Only then will listeners see how colonial, historical, and intergenerational legacies have always played a role in the treatment of mental health.

In this “vital, necessary, and beautiful book” (Michael Eric Dyson), antiracist educator Robin DiAngelo deftly illuminates the phenomenon of white fragility and “allows us to understand racism as a practice not restricted to 'bad people'" (Claudia Rankine). Referring to the defensive moves white people make when challenged racially, white fragility is characterized by emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt and by behaviors including argumentation and silence. These behaviors, in turn, function to reinstate white racial equilibrium and prevent meaningful cross-racial dialogue.

Histoire
What does diversity do? What are we doing when we use the language of diversity? Sara Ahmed offers an account of the diversity world based on interviews with diversity practitioners in higher education, as well as her own experience of doing diversity work. Diversity is an ordinary, even unremarkable, feature of institutional life. Yet diversity practitioners often experience institutions as resistant to their work, as captured through their use of the metaphor of the "brick wall". On Being Included offers an explanation of this apparent paradox.

Heather McGhee’s specialty is the American economy—and the mystery of why it so often fails the American public. From the financial crisis of 2008 to rising student debt to collapsing public infrastructure, she found a root problem: racism in our politics and policymaking. But not just in the most obvious indignities for people of color. Racism has costs for white people, too. It is the common denominator of our most vexing public problems, the core dysfunction of our democracy and constitutive of the spiritual and moral crises that grip us all.

There is one question Canadians have asked Jody Wilson-Raybould more than any other: What can I do to help advance reconciliation? This has been true from her time as a leader of British Columbia’s First Nations, as a Member of Parliament, as Minister of Justice and Attorney General, within business communities, and when having conversations with people. Whether speaking as individuals, communities, organizations, or governments, people want to take concrete and tangible action that will make real change. They just need to know how to get started, or to take the next step.

The tragedies and reckonings around racism that are rocking the country have created a specific crisis for parents, educators, and other caregivers: How do we talk to our children about racism? How do we teach children to be antiracist? How are kids at different ages experiencing race? How are racist structures impacting children? How can we inspire our children to avoid our mistakes, to be better, to make the world better? These are the questions Ibram X. Kendi found himself avoiding as he anticipated the birth of his first child.

Histoire
Today's feminist movement has a glaring blind spot, and paradoxically, it is women. Mainstream feminists rarely talk about meeting basic needs as a feminist issue, argues Mikki Kendall, but food insecurity, access to quality education, safe neighborhoods, a living wage, and medical care are all feminist issues. All too often, however, the focus is not on basic survival for the many, but on increasing privilege for the few. Author Mikki Kendall takes aim at the legitimacy of the modern feminist movement arguing that it has chronically failed to address the needs of all but a few women.

What would it be like to live in a well-rested world? Far too many of us have claimed productivity as the cornerstone of success. Brainwashed by capitalism, we subject our bodies and minds to work at an unrealistic, damaging, and machine‑level pace—feeding into the same engine that enslaved millions into brutal labor for its own relentless benefit. In Rest Is Resistance, Tricia Hersey, aka the Nap Bishop, casts an illuminating light on our troubled relationship with rest and how to imagine and dream our way to a future where rest is exalted.

Mediocre investigates the real costs of this phenomenon in order to imagine a new white male identity, one free from racism and sexism.

It was a year that saw calls for tighter borders when black refugees braved frigid temperatures to cross into Manitoba from the States, Indigenous land and water protectors resisting the celebration of Canada’s 150th birthday, police across the country rallying around an officer accused of murder, and more.

Description
An instant New York Times Bestseller!
A no-holds-barred guidebook aimed at white women who want to stop being nice and start dismantling white supremacy from the team behind Race2Dinner and the documentary film, Deconstructing Karen.
It's no secret that white women are conditioned to be "nice," but did you know that the desire to be perfect and to avoid conflict at all costs are characteristics of white supremacy culture?
As the founders of Race2Dinner, an organization which facilitates conversations between white women about racism and white supremacy, Regina Jackson and Saira Rao have noticed white women's tendency to maintain a veneer of niceness, and strive for perfection, even at the expense of anti-racism work.
In this book, Jackson and Rao pose these urgent questions: how has being "nice" helped Black women, Indigenous women and other women of color? How has being "nice" helped you in your quest to end sexism? Has being "nice" earned you economic parity with white men? Beginning with freeing white women from this oppressive need to be nice, they deconstruct and analyze nine aspects of traditional white woman behavior—from tone-policing to weaponizing tears—that uphold white supremacy society, and hurt all of us who are trying to live a freer, more equitable life.
White Women is a call to action to those of you who are looking to take the next steps in dismantling white supremacy. Your white supremacy. If you are in fact doing real anti-racism work, you will find few reasons to be nice, as other white people want to limit your membership in the club. If you are not ticking white people off on a regular basis, you are not doing it right.
Ce que les critiques en disent
“Deconstructing white women and white supremacy has never been more necessary than it is right now, and I am always looking for ways to learn, grow, shut the F up, and listen. This book gives you the tools to do just that.”–Chelsea Handler
“This book dares to tell necessary truths. The kind of truths that can save lives, and if heard with an open mind and heart—may even help save the soul of this lost nation.”–Frederick Joseph, author of New York Times bestsellers Patriarchy Blues and The Black Friend
"In their recent The New York Times bestseller White Women: Everything You Already Know About Your Own Racism and How To Do Better, Jackson and Rao are clearly more interested in confronting and challenging the subtle yet devastating ways that racism shows up than soothing, coaxing and coddling individual egos."–Forbes

This book will trigger you and that’s a good thing. Consider it a litmus test for the progression of your healing journey. Highly recommend for fellow white women and anyone else interested in a compelling framing of white supremacy.

Important and necessary
In a world where many deny the existence of white supremacy while perpetuating its harm, this is an important and necessary read. Dismantling white supremacy and practicing anti-racism isn't about whether people are good or bad, every person has the capacity for good and bad; it's about investigating our biases and understanding our conditioning. It's about making space for other people's stories; making space for Black stories and experiences, something white supremacy has restricted and denied. I suspect many who identify as white will find this a challenging read and will find it hard to look towards their darkness because white supremacy teaches there is no darkness in whiteness, only enlightenment. In the words of Seth Adam "you cannot defeat darkness by running from it, nor can you conquer your inner demons by hiding them from the world. In order to defeat the darkness, you just bring it to the light." This book challenges readers to bring their darkness to the light and for that reason, many will feel triggered by it. But for those that want to be world changers, this is a conversation that must be had.

What every Black & WoC really wants to say
I bought this book from Audible. I love hearing the authors reading it, for their authenticity, education and conviction are apparent. I had to pause at many points and catch my breath because I have tried to put my own feelings into words as a PoC (socialized female) and this book articulates word for word my experiences in the US and yes, even in Canada. The denial from Canadians is hilarious to me, their PR of being friendly and "better" than the US is laughable, but I digress. I see reviews on Amazon and here on Audible that say that this book is indelicate - a topic that is handled superbly in the book itself if such readers/listeners would have bothered to truly pay attention beyond their initial b*tt clenching. As Regina and Saira say, you could put it on a cake with nice lettering and w**te women will still miss the memo. This has been my experience as a first generation immigrant in the US and Canada.
The book superbly outlines the blatant tactics employed by w**te women and what they can do to, in fact, move from their superficial niceties to co-conspirator. The book emphasizes that w**te women need to understand that their bs is harming ALL WOMEN, NON-BINARY and TRANS folks and these issues are not just for Black and Brown people to address, but their own, because it impacts them as well. I love the parallels between patriarchy and w**te supremacy because it may truly help those interested (key word being interested) in dismantling w**te supremacy.
The book is wide in scope and covers a lot. A must-read for any so-called "not racists".

Read this book.
This book is interesting, and would be a great first read for someone starting to learn and reflect on their whiteness. I would also recommend reading love and rage (Llama Rod Owens) and reflecting on your own healing process, ancestor work and identity in conjunction with exploring these perspectives. What is most challenging is how insistent and unilateral the concepts are presented, without nuance or intersectionality. I’m not sure if this is partially a facet of being Canadian (we are also racist here), but some of the dichotomies and embedded blanket and inaccurate assumptions (all white women pay $600 for yoga classes, therapy and purses?? Only white children misbehave without reprimand? Teachers are mainly racist white women? White women are unsupportive of each other and don’t have real friendships?) made it hard to keep listening. Keep listening. It’s part of the work. Sit with your feelings. This is part of the conversation. Right now our role is to listen, watch ourselves, meet ourselves, see ourselves, and reflect on how we want to change. This book doesn’t exactly empathetically do that - some people might need more compassion rather than the tough love offered by this book. There are other books out there to hopefully help you do that. It’s certainly a tour de force that will hopefully passionately incite emotional reactions and conversations, and I can’t wait to talk more about it. It also felt like a swift kick to do better and leverage my own power. That it’s not enough to not be racist, but that it’s my duty to be an anti racist and a co-conspirator in actively dismantling the oppressive, misogynist, capitalist and patriarchal racist systems that we live in. And that my oppression is tied up in this l, and there is no other path. This book is not perfect but it is a book you will want and need to talk about. Read it.
