White Like Me: Race, Racism and White Privilege in America (2013)

White Like Me, based on the work of acclaimed anti-racist educator and best selling author Tim Wise, explores race and racism in the US through the lens of whiteness and white privilege. Wise offers a fascinating look back at the race-based white entitlement programs that built the American middle class, and argues that our failure as a society to come to terms with this legacy of white privilege continues to perpetuate racial inequality and race-driven political resentments today.
