   White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism    
   Robin DiAngelo, (chapter 1):   
      
   "White people in North America live in a society that is deeply separate and   
   unequal by race, and white people are the beneficiaries of that separation and   
   inequality. As a result, we are insulated from racial stress, at the same time   
   that we come to    
   feel entitled to and deserving of our advantage. Given how seldom we   
   experience racial discomfort in a society we dominate, we haven’t had to   
   build our racial stamina. Socialized into a deeply internalized sense of   
   superiority that we either are    
   unaware of or can never admit to ourselves, we become highly fragile in   
   conversations about race. We consider a challenge to our racial worldviews as   
   a challenge to our very identities as good, moral people. Thus, we perceive   
   any attempt to connect us to    
   the system of racism as an unsettling and unfair moral offense. The smallest   
   amount of racial stress is intolerable—the mere suggestion that being white   
   has meaning often triggers a range of defensive responses. These include   
   emotions such as anger,    
   fear, and guilt and behaviors such as argumentation, silence, and withdrawal   
   from the stress-inducing situation. These responses work to reinstate white   
   equilibrium as they repel the challenge, return our racial comfort, and   
   maintain our dominance within    
   the racial hierarchy. I conceptualize this process as white fragility. Though   
   white fragility is triggered by discomfort and anxiety, it is born of   
   superiority and entitlement. White fragility is not weakness per se. In fact,   
   it is a powerful means of    
   white racial control and the protection of white advantage."

   you're dealing with a white supremacist, which Dale did in his rant early on,   
   is ant variation of "but, but, but... not all white people...”   
      
   Then there is your "colored people" faux pas that said it all.
