[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The book will only be inflammatory because some people will not like the truths they hear. It challenges you to understand your implicit biases, or contributions to allowing discriminatory systems to continue. It is hard to hear. And, while I didn't necessarily agree with everything, it was quite eye opening. If you're turned off by the title (I was too), you are someone who should read it. If you think hearing what she has to say (noted above) is "offensive" or "inflammatory", you DEFINITELY should read the book. It talks about that defense mechanism quite effectively. Since when do we just bury our heads in the sand b/c we may not like something? Quit being a baby and give it a read before you start complaining. Geez. [/quote] The book is a personal ideology and you can to force your personal ideology on others. Or students. Fire up the lawsuits.[/quote]
