I think it was interesting to hear how easily white people often feel attacked or get uneasy and defensive when discussing race

It made me sad to think about a 3-4 year old already thinking that being white is better than being another race.

I am not able to write in the chat now.  Struck by “ part of being white is being able to get to your first job without ever having to notice  (confront) my race or my racism . . “      If racism wasn’t park of schooling, we (white people) would not care what schools our kids went to.   Maintain dominance by being so defensive.

It must be beyond frustrating for a person of color to see a white person (on purpose or not) to shift focus onto themselves, rather than keep the focus on racism, injustice, etc.

I am suspect about
the fact that she uses the pronoun "I" when speaking of feminist issues but speaks about white people as "they" almost removing herself from that particular group..

I almost always roll my eyes when white teachers from the Edison are the primary emailers of black culture reads and videos- this connects with what D'Angelo says about white progessives at the forefront of the conversation, and that this makes them "anti-racist"

Wow.  white fragility (defensiveness, tears) has the IMPACT of taking the conversation away from racism and  refocuses the attention onto us (white people) as victims. And, that this happens even if we are not doing this on purpose.

I would suggest moving beyond studying racism in the American historical lens and also learning about how racist dynamics play in the countries where your immigrant students are from. Colonization was not the same everywhere and this dichotomy is not something all our immigrant students know how to deal with. Identity matters!
