This is a great critique of neo-liberalism. Definitely worth reading the whole thing - not long. My favorite part:
"Raising awareness is our generations pat on the back, our absolution of guilt, our mechanism for maintaining our neo-liberal, do-good Whiteness which separates us from those OTHER horrible people who ‘do nothing’. "
