À propos de cet audio
New York Times Best Seller
Building on the groundwork laid in the New York Times best seller White Fragility, Robin DiAngelo explores how a culture of niceness inadvertently promotes racism.
In White Fragility, Robin DiAngelo explained how racism is a system into which all White people are socialized and challenged the belief that racism is a simple matter of good people versus bad. DiAngelo also made a provocative claim: White progressives cause the most daily harm to people of color. In Nice Racism, her follow-up work, she explains how they do so. Drawing on her background as a sociologist and over 25 years working as an anti-racist educator, she picks up where White Fragility left off and moves the conversation forward.
Writing directly to White people as a White person, DiAngelo identifies many common white racial patterns and breaks down how well-intentioned White people unknowingly perpetuate racial harm. These patterns include:
- rushing to prove that we are “not racist”,
- downplaying white advantage,
- romanticizing Black, Indigenous, and other peoples of color (BIPOC),
- pretending white segregation “just happens”,
- expecting BIPOC people to teach us about racism,
- carefulness,
- and feeling immobilized by shame.
DiAngelo explains how spiritual White progressives seeking community by coopting Indigenous and other groups’ rituals create separation, not connection. She challenges the ideology of individualism and explains why it is okay to generalize about White people, and she demonstrates how White people who experience other oppressions still benefit from systemic racism. Writing candidly about her own missteps and struggles, she models a path forward, encouraging white readers to continually face their complicity and embrace courage, lifelong commitment, and accountability.
Nice Racism is an essential work for any white person who recognizes the existence of systemic racism and white supremacy and wants to take steps to align their values with their actual practice. BIPOC listeners may also find the “insiders” perspective useful for navigating whiteness.
Includes a study guide.

“A pointed reminder that good intentions aren’t enough to break the cycle of racism.” (Kirkus Reviews)
“A fierce critique of the ‘culture of niceness’ that prevents the hard work of dismantling racism.... [DiAngelo] dismantles unconscious biases with precision. Readers will feel compelled to hold themselves more accountable.” (Publishers Weekly)

Insightful, heart wrenching and a call to personal action

Thanks to this book I was able to realize several mistakes that I, a white latinx male progressive, was making, and I hope to improve. There were many blindspots that were not clear for me before, and now are. As the first book does, it gives names to our wrong actions and help us identify them.
As a great finishing touch, it also gives a great list of actions at the end to help us be more accountable and anti-racist.
Essential and great sequel to White Fragility
