White Awareness had two versions. In the 1990s I came across the first version and have the utmost respect for its author. My husband and I have been deeply involved in race unity work, and I always wanted to conduct workshops on white awareness for whites only, as I feel that's where the real insight and change has to come. Illness prevented me, but still years later, I feel the same way. A few years ago, I ordered the updated version of White Awareness, and I hope I'll find someone to give her workshops.

Skin color privilege is still an important subject. I am grateful for Dr. Joy DeGruy to have published and spoken, in video and book form about Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome, and anyone interested in this subject would be solace, enlightenment and authenticity with study and reading of her material. That said, as a Baha'i for a very many years, the unity of black and white is entitled "The Most Vital and Challenging Issue, for Americans. I still think we have so much more to be aware of.
