Raising White awareness of the benefits of claiming a White anti-racist identity.
The Problem:
Whether in college, on the Internet, in a workshop, through the media or just in passing conversation, white people these days are hearing that we may not be the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Some of us are tempted to reject the message entirely - thus depriving ourselves of the opportunity to develop expertise in talking or writing about racism.
Others of us begin to question whether we are good people and/or whether we truly have a right to the resources and benefits available to us as white people - thus increasing our risk of unemployment, depression and even loss of life.
All white people are thus at increased risk for a variety of ailments, including: Over-defensiveness, paralysis-by-guilt, lowered self-esteem, loss of optimal access to resources and overall loss of identity.
We Have a Solution:
By claiming a white-anti-racist identity, you will have the opportunity to be a ”good white person“ being critical of racism while never risking the survival of the system of white supremacy and, thus, your own centrality and privilege.
Does it seem to good to be true? It’s not! Here’s How It Works.
