Witnessing Whiteness — Third Edition — A Must Read For White People Who Care

Witnessing Whiteness — Third Edition — A MUST Read — for White People — Who Care!

Shelly Tochluk’s Third Edition of: Witnessing Whiteness: The Journey Into Racial Awareness And AntiRacist Action is an incredible, incredible book. White people who care about ending racism should purchase a copy of this book, read it, and save it for its reference value.

I’ve been a part of multiple trainings with her and members of AWARE-LA — her “home” group. While it would be a stretch to say that we are friends, I greatly admire both her work, and her wonderful caring heart.

This book is a primer for the white anti-racism activist or anyone else who wishes to become more aware moving into (more) anti-racism work with other white people.

I know of no competition! The book complements the writings of others, particularly great Black writers, many of whom are referenced in its pages.

I previously positively reviewed the Second Edition of this book — see…
