Mirrors of Privilege: Making Whiteness Visible is a must-see for all people who
are interested in justice, spiritual growth and community making. It features the
experiences of white women and men who have worked to gain insight into what it
means to challenge notions of racism and white supremacy in the United States.
The participants’ up-close and personal reflections provide access into their journeys
of learning and transformation. Their conversations reveal what is often required
to expose the denial, defensiveness, guilt, fear and shame that helps keep systemic
racism in place. The result of this type of work demonstrates the skills and capacities
needed to make solid commitments towards building racial justice. Dr. Butler’s work
moves conversations beyond black and white and speaks to the interconnectedness
of racism, classism, sexism, and homophobia.
