Robin DiAngelo, the author of the bestselling antiracist book, White Fragility, insisted that racial minorities should separate themselves from white Americans.
“People of color need to get away from White people and have some community with each other,” DiAngelo chuckled during a webinar entitled, “Racial Justice: The Next Frontier,” hosted on March 1.
Later on in the panel discussion, DiAngelo went on to suggest that people who do not concede to antiracist teachings do not belong in modern workforces.
“In 2023, we have to see the ability to engage in these conversations with some nuance and some skill as a basic qualification and if you can’t do that, you’re just simply not qualified in today’s workplace,” DiAngelo said as the panel of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) consultants nodded in agreement.
“What I want to do is create a culture that actually spits out those who are resistant,” DiAngelo added.
The once-obscure American academic rocketed to fame in recent years after coining the term “White Fragility” in 2011 to describe, in DiAngelo’s own words, “a state in which even a minimum amount of racial stress becomes intolerable, triggering a range of defensive moves.”
Oxford Dictionary shortlisted the word in 2017.
The following year DiAngelo wrote a book of the same name, which spent nearly three years on the New York Times bestseller list and became popular following the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. During this time she began charging as much as $15,000 for speaking engagements.

O2
great idea. and stop reproducing with white people, too.
So?....How come she isn’t canceled?
It’s not that it’s “hard for white people to talk about racism”.
It’s that saying ANYTHING except the required narrative will get you fired.
And we aren’t “fragile”, we’re fed up.
Maybe a donkey.
Maybe they can gather around their own designated water coolers. Or have segregated water fountains.
Separate fountains just mean shorter lines for everyone!
Another grifter running a game.
