How do we actually fight racism when the prevailing cultural vibe is to gaslight us into believing it doesn't even exist?
To hold the line, we have to call it out in real time. And as the dominant group, White people need to step up and do the heavy lifting. The issue, according to DEI researcher and consultant Dr. Evelyn Carter, is that White people simply haven’t been socialized to spot racial bias the way people of color are forced to every day. Racism isn't just someone dropping explicit slurs or making passive-aggressive microaggressions; it’s an entire systemic framework designed to default to Whiteness as the status quo.
The silver lining? Spotting it is a skill you can actually build.
Was That Racist? is a total re-education, a massive wake-up call, and an actionable roadmap packed with evidence-based strategies. It breaks down how to build a growth mindset around implicit bias, unlearn the "I don't see color" narrative in favor of actual color consciousness, talk to kids about race, and get the people in your orbit to do the work with you.
At a moment when DEI initiatives are facing major pushback, Was That Racist? is the ultimate toolkit for anyone ready to take accountability and help build a truly equitable future.
