And You. — White Feminism: The Lie That Binds You — Niceness Is Not Kindness — White Women Love to Police Tone — White Women Weaponize Their Tears — White Women and Exceptionalism — “Microaggressions” and How You Kill Us at Work — White Women and White Silence — White Women and White Solidarity — Conclusion: Now What?  a"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."--cProvided by publisher. 0aAnti-racism926668 0aWomen, White - Attitudes.926831 0aWomen, White - Race identity.926832 0aRacism911980  aRao, Saira,eauthor.926833  2lcc  00102lcc4070aTBSbTBSd2026-03-06l0r2026-03-06t1w2026-03-06y1zSOON AVAILABLE  c5394d5394
