"Layla Saad is one of the most important and valuable teachers we have right now on the subject of white supremacy and racial injustice."―New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Gilbert
Author Layla F. Saad wrote Me and White Supremacy to encourage people who hold white privilege to examine their (often unconscious) racist thoughts and behaviors through a unique, twenty-eight day reflection process, complete with journaling prompts. This two-book bundle, which contains Me and White Supremacy and Me and White Supremacy: A Guided Journal, gives you all the tools you need to begin your antiracism journey.
Awareness leads to action, and action leads to change. Create the change the world needs by creating change within yourself. For readers of White Fragility, White Rage, So You Want To Talk About Race, The New Jim Crow, How to Be an Anti-Racist and more who are ready to closely examine their own beliefs and biases and do the work it will take to create social change.
"Her work is personal, practical, reflective, applicable, difficult, effective, and imperative. For the millions of us beginning to know where to begin―where to begin to counteract our ugly history, and where to stand during this historical moment of polarization and hate―Layla answers: Begin with me. Begin with you."―Glennon Doyle, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Untamed
