Acknowledgements

 

I dedicate this Website to everyone involved in making the documentry film, "The Color of Fear," produced and directed by Lee Mun Wah.  Seeing this film in 1996 ignited a passion in me to become aware, of and to help others become aware of, the relative privilege and ease that comes with being a member of the dominant racial group, i.e., white, and a passion (to use the words of Neil Ignatiev) "to protest as loudly when I get the biggest piece of cake as I would if I got the smallest piece."        

I give deep thanks and appreciation to the following people who made this Website possible by contributing their stories.  Aside from myself, the following people contributed vignettes:
