When it comes to race, most White Americans are obsessed with two things: defending our own inherent goodness and maintaining our own comfort levels. Too often, this means white people assume that to be racist, one has to be openly hateful and willfully discriminatory - you know, a bad person. And we know we're good, Christian people, right? But you don't have to be wearing a white hood or shouting racial epithets to be complicit in America's racist history and its ongoing systemic inequality.

In Good White Racist, Kerry Connelly exposes the ways white people participate in, benefit from, and unknowingly perpetuate racism - despite their best "good person" intentions. Good White Racist unpacks the systems that maintain the status quo, keep white people comfortable and complicit, and perpetuate racism in the United States and elsewhere.

Combining scholarly research with her trademark New Jersey snark, Connelly shows us that even though it may not be our fault or choice to participate in a racist system, we all do, and it's our responsibility to do something about it.

Very well written and extremely informative. I loved that the author talked from her own experience as well as talking about the broader challenges. She also concludes with suggestions for suggestions that allow people to be reflective in their chosen next steps.

Written with sincerity and grace

I read this book because of implicit bias activities at my job. I would highly recommend this book for all white people who don’t identify themselves as racist. Kerry Connelly uses her faith, data, personal anecdotes, and ripped from the headlines stories to illustrate how someone can be a good white racist.

Must read!
