I began this book last week and would love to have discussions based on the prompts provided within the book. The book is set up so that after each day's reading, there are a handful of prompts to respond to. Feel free to respond to as many or as few as you like. I would love for this to be a discussion and a place where we can learn and grow together. Please be honest, because that is the only way anything will change.
Additionally, I have been compiling a list of books under the #BlackLivesMatter Reading List tab. I am usually adding books daily that I find, or are recommended by others. Please leave a comment on that page if you have titles to add. I hope you can find titles on this list that you will learn from as well.
Day Seven Reflection
1. What have you begun to see and understand about your personal complicity in white supremacy that you were not able to see or understand before you began this work?
Let's talk!

I have begun to see that there are so many ways that I have an unconscious bias in one way or another that I never knew was even in my head. This whole book has been so eye-opening and it greatly embarrasses me to think of ways I have offended people and gone on my merry way without even knowing that I have done so. This entire book is such a gem, and even though it has made me uncomfortable a lot of the time while reading it and thinking about my own behavior, I know that discomfort is necessary to move forward.
