Conversations with the Author: Debby Irving and “Waking Up White”
“Waking Up White” is Debby Irving’s powerful, sometimes cringe-worthy memoir about her journey in understanding what it means to be “White” and her struggle to understand racism and racial tensions. In her book, Irving explains why and how she has changed the way she talks about racism, how she works in racially mixed groups, and how she understands the racial justice movement as a whole.
