Knowingly and unknowingly we all grapple with race every day. Understanding White Privilege delves into the complex interplay between race; power; and privilege in both organizations and private life. It offers an unflinching look at how ignorance can perpetuate privilege; and offers practical and thoughtful insights into how people of all races can work to break this cycle. Based on thirty years of work in diversity and colleges; universities; and corporations; Frances Kendall candidly invites readers to think personally about how race ― theirs and others’ ― frames experiences and relationships; focusing squarely on white privilege and its implications for building authentic relationships across race. This much-anticipated revised edition includes two full new chapters; one on white women and another extending the discussion on race. It continues the important work of the first; deepening our knowledge of the recurring history on which cross-race relationships issues exist. Kendall’s book provides readers with a more meaningful understanding of white privilege and equips them with strategies for making personal and organizational changes.
