White people think it’s their actual face. They don’t even know they have a mask on. Addressing racism assumes that white people can see and process what we are talking about.

Khilanani launched into an attack of all white people as a monolithically ignorant, delusional, and hateful group. We keep forgetting that directly talking about race is a waste of our breath. They feel that we should be thanking them for all that they have done for us. We are now in a psychological predicament, because white people feel that we are bullying them when we bring up race.

Khilanani, who describes in her profile on the Independent Doctors of New York Web site that she has 'expertise in treating patients who may be curious about questions around their identity'. "A psychiatrist lecturing at Yale's Child Study Center spoke about 'unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way."
