Layla Saad’s book Me & White Supremacy: Combat Racism, Change the World, and Become a Good Ancestor offers a chance for readers to explore how white supremacy influences our daily lives. Readers get introduced to terms like white centering, white exceptionalism, and white silence. The book guides readers through daily journaling and introspection and is meant for all age ranges, but the author recommends it primarily for those who identify as white.

We invited the university to challenge themselves and read this book over the course of 28 days, starting February 8, 2023. If you did not read the book, you are still welcome to join our round table virtual discussion!

This is part of the campus wide initiative “Day of Collective Action”: https://president.utah.edu/doca/\

If you are interested in attending an in-person discussion of the book, the Marriott Library will be hosting one.
