White Male Supporters of the Canterbury Female Academy

White Men and Intersectionality
or, Privilege is for Using, not for Wallowing in Guilt
White male supporters of the Canterbury Female Academy ranged from then-obscure but now-famous Abolitionists to future governors of Connecticut, from neighbors and decent men in Canterbury to college students. These white men were in the forefront of understanding a different America, the first white men to live in an inclusive way that welcomed the presence of those different from themselves. In other words, these were pioneers of a non-defense embrace of diversity.
