In a rage by what? White people live in a world in which they have segregated themselves in every possible way--friendships, school districts, housing, work, news, social media, whatever. It's easy to think this stuff is no longer an issue when you don't know anyone who goes through it. Hell, they get angry when their carefully manufactured, homogenous reality is disturbed by kneeling athletes, requests that people be treated as if their lives matter, being inconvenienced for a few minutes by people trying to break through that crafted bubble to try to get them to look outside of it. I mean the whole article talks about how white people react to anyone even
implying that something they've done is the result of racism. They can't and don't want to hear it.
