I had to look it up — it’s basically the idea that White people get unhappy if you constantly accuse them of being racist. They take it personally. They don’t think they are. White people are very fragile on this topic.

There is a book out there that tries to convince White People to stop being so fragile, admit their guilt, and basically accept the fact that everything bad in the world is their fault.

That’s good. I don’t care about being called racist.

Done and over.

Is the book being endorsed or condemned by the NEA?

While I’d love to see teachers telling snow flakes to stop being fragile, somehow I don’t see that happening.

They can even quote Kippling and tell them that it is time for them to shoulder the White Man’s Burden.

The White Man’s Burden — The United States and the Philippine Islands
by Rudyard Kipling
Take up the White Man’s burden —
Send forth the best ye breed —
Go bind your sons to exile
To serve your captives’ need;
To wait in heavy harness,
On fluttered folk and wild —
Your new-caught, sullen peoples,
Half-devil and half-child.

Take up the White Man’s burden —
In patience to abide,
To veil the threat of terror
And check the show of pride;
By open speech and simple,
An hundred times made plain
To seek another’s profit,
And work another’s gain.

Take up the White Man’s burden —
The savage wars of peace —
Fill full the mouth of Famine
And bid the sickness cease;
And when your goal is nearest
The end for others sought,
Watch sloth and heathen Folly
Bring all your hopes to nought.

Take up the White Man’s burden —
No tawdry rule of kings,
But toil of serf and sweeper —
The tale of common things.
The ports ye shall not enter,
The roads ye shall not tread,
Go make them with your living,
And mark them with your dead.

Take up the White Man’s burden —
And reap his old reward:
The blame of those ye better,
The hate of those ye guard —
The cry of hosts ye humour
(Ah, slowly!) toward the light: —
“Why brought he us from bondage,
Our loved Egyptian night?”

Take up the White Man’s burden —
Ye dare not stoop to less —
Nor call too loud on Freedom
To cloak your weariness;
By all ye cry or whisper,
By all ye leave or do,
The silent, sullen peoples
Shall weigh your gods and you.

Take up the White Man’s burden —
Have done with childish days —
The lightly profferred laurel,
The easy, ungrudged praise.

Comes now, to search your manhood
Through all the thankless years
Cold, edged with dear-bought wisdom,
The judgment of your peers!

Haha, “fragile” whites, who support almost the entire country through their taxes, innovation, etc.

What’s funny is that if a white person feels comfortable in this country despite race issues, that is white privilege. If you don’t, that is white fragility. So you’re either guilty of one or another.
