Summary
Based off the original workbook, Me and White Supremacy teaches listeners how to dismantle the privilege within themselves so that they can stop (often unconsciously) inflicting damage on people of color, and in turn, help other white people do better, too.

When Layla Saad began an Instagram challenge called #meandwhitesupremacy, she never predicted it would spread as widely as it did. She encouraged people to own up and share their racist behaviors, big and small. She was looking for truth, and she got it. Thousands of people participated in the challenge, and over 90,000 people downloaded the Me and White Supremacy Workbook.

The updated and expanded Me and White Supremacy takes the work deeper by adding more historical and cultural contexts, sharing moving stories and anecdotes, and including expanded definitions, examples, and and further resources.

Awareness leads to action, and action leads to change. The numbers show that people are ready to do this work—let’s give it to them.

Hypocrisy at its finest. The author is racist, and doesn't even realize it.

Tired, decades old stereo-types abound. For a book about systemic racism this book was written without a hint of self reflection. Poor to awful. Zero insight. If it was written in 1950 maybe it would have been useful. The world is different, but obviously the author and the contributors are stuck with perceptions that perhaps had credibility in 1950. If I took an issue like the obsession with social media today, which some people have problems with, and then focused solely on radio and limited television, you would rightly say I wasn't seeing the problem as it exists. Radio isn't the probem.

I only wish I could’ve done this workbook in elementary school. An indispensable and important guide. It should be mandatory reading in school for those of us with white privilege.
