520    For twenty-five years, Debby Irving sensed inexplicable 
       racial tensions in her personal and professional 
       relationships. As a colleague and neighbor, she worried 
       about offending people she dearly wanted to befriend. As 
       an arts administrator, she didn't understand why her 
       diversity efforts lacked traction. As a teacher, she found
       her best efforts to reach out to students and families of 
       color left her wondering what she was missing. Then, in 
       2009, one "aha!" moment launched an adventure of discovery
       and insight that drastically shifted her worldview and 
       upended her life plan. In Waking Up White, Irving tells 
       her often cringe-worthy story with such openness that 
       readers will turn every page rooting for her-and 
       ultimately for all of us.
