‘White Fragility’ author allegedly plagiarized minority academics in doctoral thesis [Video]

“White Fragility” author Robin DiAngelo may have plagiarized multiple scholars, including minority writers, in her 2004 Ph.D. thesis, according to a report Monday.

A complaint filed with the University of Washington and shared with the Washington Free Beacon found dozens of examples of DiAngelo lifting material from other papers without proper attribution, in-text citations or quotation marks in her dissertation.

This included material from two Asian-American professors, University of Wisconsin-Madison professor Stacey Lee and Northeastern University professor Thomas Nakayama.

“It is never appropriate to use the secondary source without acknowledging it, and even worse to present it as one’s own words,” National Association of Scholars president Peter Wood told the Free Beacon. “That’s plagiarism.”
