Thanks for the heads up! I am halfway through the intro and I feel like it's largely there to frame the book and how challenging of a read it will be for the reader if they belong to the colonizers.

I found interesting (depressing?) parallels with more recent discussions about white fragility. In my ignorance I thought this was a more recent concept. Clearly, it isn't.
