White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism is a book written by Robin DiAngelo about modern race relations in the United States. An academic with experience in diversity training, DiAngelo coined the term "white fragility" to describe what she views as any defensive instincts or reactions that a white person experiences when questioned about race or made to consider one's own race.

She recommends against viewing racism as committed intentionally by "bad people" and instead advocates for seeing it for what it is. More
