The protests against racial injustice that have made headlines over the past month may be prompting some white Americans to consider-perhaps for the first time--the advantages they've benefited from all their lives. Brian Lowery, PhD, a senior associate dean at Stanford University's Graduate School of Business, studies the psychology of racial privilege in the United States. He discusses the factors that drive many white Americans to ignore and even deny that White privilege exists, and what he believes needs to be done to combat racial injustice.
