When Being Nice Becomes Harmful
Picture a social justice organization celebrating its first training on racism-except it wasn't the first. For six weeks, Carolyn, the only Black staff member, had been teaching colleagues about racial dynamics. Yet when a white participant praised the organization for "finally" addressing racism, Carolyn's labor vanished. Her expertise, her emotional toll, her daily work-all erased in one well-meaning comment. This is nice racism: the subtle ways progressive white people cause harm while maintaining their innocence. It's the racism of good intentions, friendly smiles, and liberal politics. It's harder to name than overt bigotry, yet it perpetuates the same systems of inequality. The uncomfortable truth? Being pleasant isn't the same as being anti-racist. In fact, niceness often functions as a shield, protecting white people from confronting their complicity while leaving people of color to navigate the consequences alone.
