Better to read a book about antiracism written by a Black person. DiAngelo just regurgitates what she's picked up from BIPOC while lining her own pockets.

- White Rage by Carol Anderson
- Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race by Reni Eddo-Lodge
- Me and White Supremacy by Layla F. Saad
- Giovanni's Room by James Baldwin
