What does this SNAP Summary Include?
Synopsis of the original book Key takeaways from each chapter An overview of white silence and other habits that uphold white supremacy What it takes to do genuine antiracism work Editorial Review Background on Layla F. Saad About the Original Book:
White supremacy, Saad explains, is often used to characterize the belief systems of far-right extremists, but the truth is that it is upheld by everyone who is white or passes as white. Virtually every white person has bought into the idea that white ways of thinking, speaking, and behaving are better than those of people of color. Although this belief is not based on any truth, it is the foundation of a comprehensive system that gives white people power and privilege at the expense of people of color. Me and White Supremacy is a practical guide for unrooting this racist belief in all its forms and working toward racial equality and justice.
