Racial privilege shapes the lives of white Americans in
every facet of life, from employment and education to
housing and criminal justice. Using stories from his own
life, Tim Wise shows that racism not only burdens people of
color, but also benefits those who are "white like him" —
whether or not they’re actively racist. Using stories
instead of stale statistics, Wise weaves a compelling
narrative that assesses the magnitude of racial privilege
and is at once readable and scholarly, analytical yet
accessible.
