Summary

While we know the time to talk about racism is long overdue, many white people are still anxious to talk about it. Guilt, shame, discomfort, and the fear of saying the wrong thing are just some of the feelings white people perceive as holding them back from the critical conversations around dismantling racism. In this updated and expanded second edition of Anxious to Talk About It, professor and anti-racism teacher Carolyn Helsel offers fresh new ideas and tools for moving beyond the anxiety, engaging the hard conversations, and joining the work for a more equitable world with courage, grace, and conviction
