An Ivy League Linguistics professor appeared on TV with leftist Bill Maher on Saturday and talked about a divisive movement called White Fragility, devised by White Liberal women described and by Maher as being “condescending” to Black Americans.
“I am Black and I would like that to make sense. White Fragility basically says that Blacks are hothouse flowers and everyone needs to be talking down to me,” John McWhorter told Maher.
“The only need for this book is keeping tales from being wobbly. This book helps Blacks take on the victim mentality. This book makes Blacks look like silly babies. I have been Black for 55 years and I know how Blacks feel. This book should be read as literature and not scholarship. And we are told that we have to accept it. I can tell you that Blacks do not think of ourselves as pathetic, like that book says we are,” McWhorter said.
White Fragility is a book that starts with the premise that White liberal women are accomplished perfectly at everything, and their ways and methods are superior to everyone else’s ways and methods. It is the ultimate Feminist fantasy. They are the superheroes of solving racism, which only they see under every rock and in every crevice, and only they understand, and only they uniquely know how to solve.
Of course, it doesn’t bother any of them that they are the least likely people to have a relationship with a Black person, but that is meaningless because, with their superior thinking skills, they have solved racism and determined it is White people’s fault. And someone should pay those same White liberal women a lot of money to push the book, which will solve racism once and for all.
If only all Americans accepted their superiority, the problem would be fixed once and for all. Remember, the selling point of their White Fragility empire is:
“White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism is a 2018 book written by Robin DiAngelo about race relations in the United States.”
Enter a Black man with a mind of his own. The White Fragility crowd will say that he is, in fact, a racist and not comfortable talking about how racist White people are. He busts their perfect scam, watch:

Reason Magazine wrote recently about McWhorter’s work dispelling “anti-racism”:
If advocates of “wokeness,” “critical race theory,” and “anti-racism” seem to be acting like religious zealots who must crush all heretics, that’s because they are, argued Columbia University linguist John McWhorter at a 2018 debate at the Soho Forum.”
“Anti-racism as currently configured has gone a long way from what used to be considered intelligent and sincere civil rights activism to today [being] a religion,” said McWhorter. “I don’t mean that as a rhetorical thing. It actually is what any naive anthropologist would recognize as a faith.”
The 55-year-old author first explored his idea of anti-racism as “Our Flawed New Religion” in a 2015 essay at The Daily Beast. He’s expanding the concept into a book, due out next year, that he’s serializing on Substack. Tentatively titled The Elect, it lays out his argument about the misguided fervor undergirding the anti-racist movement championed by people such as Robin DiAngelo, Ibram X. Kendi, and Ta-Nehisi Coates.
DeAngelo, the author of White Fragility, is described in her biography as:
“Robin Jeanne DiAngelo is an American author, consultant, and facilitator working in the fields of critical discourse analysis and whiteness studies.”
McWhorter is not the only one to slam the nonsense book. Consider this essay written by liberal David Burke.
“After it was published in 2018, Robin DiAngelo’s White Fragility received fawning reviews from The New Yorker and Publishers Weekly on its way to becoming a New York Times bestseller. Well-intentioned white people bought the book in droves, and the titular phrase became ubiquitous, used as a way to explain or attack white people who protested when accused of racism. Now, as more Americans are asking how they can fight racism in response to the appalling deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor, White Fragility has seen a resurgence, this time topping the bestseller list.
But while people’s desire for valuable insight about race-related issues is laudable, White Fragility cannot satisfy that need. The book does not offer profound insight into the souls of white people. Rather, White Fragility is religion masquerading as knowledge. DiAngelo’s conception of white fragility isn’t hard-won wisdom. It’s an unprovable and unfalsifiable theory, deceptively framed to convince readers of their own guilt.”
The book is shockingly shallow. It is a good thing that liberals are finally starting to admit it. It was really just a money-making scam by a bunch of egomaniacs.

I feel gratitude for everything that I and the whole world benefit from the whites. The good feeling at home for running water, water heater, central heating, washing machine, refrigerator, Marseille soap, clothes that are light and confortable, Internet, computer, telephone, television, hair dryer, good locks on the door, Jesus with a sacred heart, ancient Greece and the Romans heritage, a loving higher power. I would transplant Di Angelo in Afghanistan without all this and see how she adapts with her stupid powertrip when meeting the non-white Talibans and their stack of stones and bombing of schools. Of course she could choose Africa and genital mutilation and infibulation, a heritage of cannibalism and human sacrifice and killing of albinos for witchcraft. Or Islam without frontiers and its 1400 years of slavery and deadly castration of slaves, institutionalized systematic abuse and killing of non-muslims, sharia run families where parents are allowed to kill their children, husbands beat their wives whom they suppose could disobey, marital rape. She would have the opportunity to dress like a garbage bag in order not to be attractive in any way and breed little jihadis who will kill her anytime. The woke joke would end.
It has been the White Race who has been the world builder, the makers of cities and commerce and continents. It is the White Man who is the sole builder of civilizations. It was he who built the Egyptian civilization, the great unsurpassed Roman civilization, the Greek civilization of beauty and culture, and who, after having been dealt a serious blow by a new Semitic religion, wallowed through the Dark Ages, finally extricated himself, and then built the great European civilization.
These European White Men, then, with civilization in their blood and in their destiny, crossed the Atlantic and set up a new civilization on a bleak and rock bound coast. It was the White Men who drove north to Alaska and west to California; the men who opened up the tropics and subdued the Arctics; the men who mastered the African Veldts; the men who peopled Australia and seized the gates of the world at Suez, Gibraltar and Panama.
It was the White Race who produced men like Columbus who crossed the unknown Atlantic; men like Magellan who first circumnavigated the globe; men like Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Rembrandt, Velazquez, Bernini, Rubens, Raphael and thousands of other geniuses who created beautiful and exquisite productions in the fields of sculpture and painting; geniuses like Beethoven, Bach, Wagner and Verdi who created beautiful music; men like James Watt who invented the steam engine; men like Daimler who invented and built the reciprocating internal combustion engine; production geniuses like Henry Ford, inventors like Thomas Edison; such a prodigal genius as Nikola Tesla in the field of physics and electricity; literary geniuses like Shakespeare, Goethe and thousands of others, untold geniuses in the fields of mathematics, in the fields of chemistry and physics.
It was the White Man who spanned the continents of the world with railroads and super highways and electrical power lines. It was the White Man who created the miraculous world of electronics, ushering in the telephone, the radio and television. It was the White Race, who in a combined burst of energy and genius sent rockets to the moon and planted the feet of the White Man on extra-terrestrial territory in the last decade. [Note: The 1960’s.]
The brilliant accomplishments of the White Race are endless and rapidly expanding even as this is being written. All one has to do is leaf through the pages of an encyclopedia to appreciate the magnificent legacy of achievements wrought by the White Race through the centuries.
What other race can even come close to this remarkable record of creativity, achievement and productivity? The answer is none. None whatsoever. None can even come close. In contrast, the black man of Africa never so much as even invented the wheel.
Whites are only 16% of the world’s population (and creating only 7% of the babies), yet are the most industrious and innovative race the world has known. Whites unlocked the secrets of DNA and relativity, launched satellites, created automation, discovered electricity and nuclear energy, invented automobiles, aircraft, submarines, radio, television, computers, medicine, telephones, light bulbs, photography, and countless other technological miracles. Whites were the first to circumnavigate the planet by ship, orbit it by spacecraft, walk on the moon, probe beyond the solar system, climb the highest peaks, reach both poles, exceed the sound barrier, descend to the oceans depths… Blacks cannot even feed themselves.
Whites have to provide food, medical, financial, and engineering aid to every Black nation. Blacks cannot survive without White charity.
No pre-contact Black society ever created a written language, or weaved cloth, or forged steel, or invented the wheel, or plow, or devised a calendar, or code of laws, or system of measurement, or math, or built a multi-story structure, or sewer, or drilled a well, or irrigated, or created any agriculture, or built a road, or sea-worthy vessel. They never domesticated animals, or exploited underground natural resources, or produced anything that could be considered a mechanical device.
Blacks were still living in the Stone Age when Whites discovered them just 400 years ago.
Blacks are the oldest race, so they should be the most advanced — but they never advanced at all. Blacks lived alone in Africa, a vast continent with temperate climates and abundant resources for 60,000 years so they cannot blame slavery, racism, colonialism, culture, environment, or anything else for their failures.
Simply, life is an IQ test.
“Now, as more Americans are asking how they can fight racism in response to the appalling deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor, White Fragility has seen a resurgence, this time topping the bestseller list.”
What evidence of racism was presented in George Floyds trial? I will wait…..
What evidence of racism exists for Breonna Taylor? I will wait….
From an article on your site:
“Race was not a factor in Floyd’s death. Keith Ellison, Minnesota’s black Attorney General said so. Yet mostly everyone in the country thinks it was about race thanks to our failing news media who keep pushing that narrative.”
However your article link Floyd’s death to racism? What is your truth Kari?
