Author and Speaker, Layla F. Saad has created a groundbreaking resource: the Me And White Supremacy Workbook.
Part education, part activation, the Me And White Supremacy Workbook is a first-of-its-kind personal anti-racism tool for people holding white privilege to begin to examine and dismantle their complicity in the oppressive system of white supremacy.
In the workbook, Layla articulates a system by which folks with white privilege can come together using ‘The Circle Method’ to work through this book together. Using this method, YAH will be hosting monthly meetings to work through it.
