I'm sure you've seen me use the term a few times, if not, you may have seen this term used elsewhere.
Here's a discussion between a white podcaster and the white author, Robin DiAngelo, "White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism", who coined this term back in 2011.
"White Fragility 101" | Crooked Media
The author explains what white fragility is, and the impact that it has on all white people and white progressives in particular: “One of the things that can trigger white fragility is generalizing about white people.”
It goes into many other aspects of this and is quite an accurate and informative discussion.
If you're open to the discourse, it's a good listen.
Let me know your thoughts once you do.
