Cocoon of Privilege: CNN Promotes Book Saying Whites Are Racist from Birth
Tim Graham

In the wake of CBS laying out the red carpet for a discussion of Robin di Angelo's notion of "white fragility" -- baldly asserting that all whites are pretty much racist, and denying it only makes it more obvious -- CNN.com offered the same one-sided welcome, led by medical producer Sandee LaMotte. It began:

    If you're a white person in America, social justice educator Robin DiAngelo has a message for you: You're a racist, pure and simple, and without a lifetime of conscious effort you always will be.

    You just can't help it, you see, because you've been swaddled in the cocoon of white privilege since you came sputtering out of your mother's womb, protesting the indignity of it all.

"CNN Promotes Book Saying Whites Are Racist from Birth"

OK, fine with me.
But if that's the case, there are but two solutions:
- Fight the whites
or
- Accept them as they are.

But if you choose to fight, you may find yourselves far outnumbered, and your opponents formidable.
