As society shifts its perspective on allyship—moving from being "not racist" to "anti-racist"—White allies are being called upon to work toward changing the status quo. However, the vast majority of resources on this topic emphasize educating allies about anti-racism without teaching them how to do anti-racism work. This leaves well-meaning allies feeling stuck, frustrated, and afraid of getting it wrong. Beyond Fragility fills this gap by providing a step-by-step approach to effective anti-racism allyship. This book provides you with the skills to:
● Understand and avoid common mishaps in anti-racist work, such as misunderstanding racism, not knowing how to recognize racism, or not having a clear anti-racist identity
● Cope with emotions like guilt, fear, hopelessness, and anger that may arise when discussing racism and privilege
● Navigate interpersonal interactions, whether it's validating experiences of BIPOC peers, recovering from a racist misstep, or speaking out against racist comments
Anti-racist allyship is not an innate essence. But with this book, you can learn skills that allow you to engage in impactful and sustainable allyship in every space you occupy.
