Is Robin DiAngelo — bestselling author of White Fragility — the most prominent example of what happens when woke liberalism crosses into racism? In this eye-opening Heretics interview, social commentator, writer, and academic Rob Henderson breaks down why he believes DiAngelo’s ideas are not only wrong, but deeply harmful.


Henderson, known for coining the concept of “luxury beliefs”, argues that certain progressive positions are adopted mainly by wealthy, educated elites — precisely because the consequences of those beliefs won’t affect them directly. From “defund the police” to DiAngelo’s Critical Race Theory-inspired rhetoric, Henderson exposes how these ideas often hurt the very people they claim to help.


In this revealing conversation, you’ll discover:


Why Henderson labels Robin DiAngelo a liberal racist.


How White Fragility promotes ideas that divide rather than unite.


The mechanics of “luxury beliefs” — and why elites can afford to hold them.


Examples of woke policies that sound virtuous but have damaging outcomes.


Why the poorest and most vulnerable often bear the costs of elite activism.


How Henderson’s own life experiences shaped his critique of woke ideology.


Andrew Gold challenges Henderson to explain how these beliefs spread, why they gain traction in institutions, and whether they can be countered without triggering backlash. They also explore the performative nature of some anti-racism initiatives — and how they become more about signalling moral purity than solving real-world problems.


Henderson, currently teaching at the prestigious Peterson Academy, brings both academic rigour and personal insight to this cultural debate. His critique isn’t aimed at ending conversations about race — but at changing them so they lead to practical solutions instead of ideological purity tests.


Whether you agree with Henderson or not, this interview will make you question the motives and outcomes behind some of the most influential voices in today’s social justice movement.
