Waite argues that “the pieces encourage not only hackneyed white guilt but male, middle-class, Christian, heterosexual, and able-bodied guilt as well.” However, the introduction of the packet explicitly states, “The emphasis is not on finding ‘right answers,” but on figuring out where you stand on an issue and articulating your position for the benefit of the group.” At no point does the committee seem to attack one particular group or label one as right and another as wrong...

I just felt like it was totally unfair that millions and millions of people were going to be on the hook for enriching people like me. I felt guilt and outrage and disgust all at the same time...
