Learning Series #5 Book Study

Me and White Supremacy  

Combat Racism, Change the World, and Become a Good Ancestor 

by Layala F. Saad

There is  a short reading and a reflection question for each day. This is great learning for everyone. I will hold a virtual Teams session at the end of the month to just have a debrief and share our learning. 

Me and White Supremacy leads readers through a journey of understanding their white privilege and participation in white supremacy, so that they can stop (often unconsciously) inflicting damage on Black, Indigenous and People of Color, and in turn, help other white people do better, too. The book goes beyond the original workbook by adding more historical and cultural contexts, sharing moving stories and anecdotes, and includes expanded definitions, examples, and further resources. 


Maximum 10 People 

ALL SD63 Staff Welcome to sign up. 

Books will be sent out in District Mail
