White Rage: The Unspoken Truth of Our Racial Divide by Carol Anderson Conversation Starters
When acclaimed Emory University historian Carol Anderson wrote in her op-ed for The Washington Post calling the 2014 riots in Ferguson, Missouri as “the latest outbreak of white rage,” the whole nation paid attention. In White Rage: The Unspoken Truth of our Racial Divide, Anderson thoroughly presents her expanded account of how state powers in America have worked to rollback African American progress since the Civil War, and how it has continued to destabilize America’s democracy. Riveting and disturbing, Anderson persuasively argues that white rage had been deliberate and relentless all these years.
This multi-awarded book, including the-New York Times Notable Book of the Year and the
Washington Post Notable Nonfiction Book of the Year, reframes America’s narrative and
conversation about race.
