Me and White Supremacy: Combat Racism, Change the World, and Become a Good Ancestor

by Layla F. Saad

Taking responsibility for your own antiracist education with the free and paid resources already publicly available, instead of expecting BIPOC to do that work for you. •Talking to your friends and family members who have white privilege about practicing antiracism. •Having racial conversations with other white people, whether in person or online. •Donating money to causes, movements, and organizations that are working toward liberation and dignity for BIPOC. •Paying money to more BIPOC businesses, entrepreneurial ventures, and projects. •Amplifying BIPOC voices (whether or not their work is about racism and social justice). •Showing up at protests and marches for BIPOC. •Calling out/in leaders, organizations, and institutions that are discriminating against and doing harm to BIPOC. •Continuing to show up, even when you are called out, you feel discomfort or fatigue, or you are not rewarded for it (socially or financially). •Taking up less space and allowing BIPOC to take up more space so that they can be heard and their leadership can be followed. •Risking relationships and comfort by speaking up instead of staying silent.
