_“This was life changing, soul shifting, eye opening and I am so
grateful. My expectations for myself and for what I pass on to my
children is forever changed. Thank you Layla." _HEATHER HAYNES -
MODESTO, USAUtilizing the groundbreaking Me and White Supremacy
workbook [https://www.meandwhitesupremacybook.com/] made available
from Layla F. Saad [http://laylafsaad.com/], this group will engage on
a 28-day personal exploration of conventional biases to enable
thinking that will begin to reverse years of institutional oppression
and intolerance of people of color.
The course is meant to be taken up individually with periodic group
gatherings for us to share and reflect upon our process and progress.
While this series is primarily focused on and geared toward white
people, anyone is welcome to take part in the course on their own. The
three group gatherings, however, are meant at this time for people who
identify as white and are enrolled in the 28-day experience. The
reason behind this is to not burden people of color with the difficult
realities they already face in their daily lives.
RSVP NOW FOR ALL THREE GATHERINGS, STARTING WITH AN INTRODUCTORY
SESSION ON MARCH 25, THEN TWO MORE ON APRIL 8 AND APRIL 22, FROM 7 PM
TO 8:30 PM.
We know that individual and collective change requires awareness,
anti-racist education, critical reflection, and empathy. Layla
Saad’s work enables us to take a “deep dive” into how we may
unknowingly be complicit in a racist society in a way that offers us a
chance to stand against the apathy, white privilege, and the 'separate
but equal' mentality that persists in our world, degrades our lives
and erodes our social fabric.
We hope you will join us!

MUST-HAVE WORKBOOK...
Layla began her career as a life and business coach in the PERSONAL
GROWTH INDUSTRY IN 2014. In 2017, Layla published the viral blog post
‘I need to talk to spiritual white women about white supremacy’
[http://laylafsaad.com/poetry-prose/white-women-white-supremacy-1],
following the Unite The Right rally in Charlottesville, USA. Layla’s
writings stirred up a tidal wave of awakening and activation in an
industry which is largely white-centered, white-washed and
white-dominated. In 2018, Layla hosted a 28-day free Instagram
challenge called MeAndWhiteSupremacy
[https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/meandwhitesupremacy/?hl=en].
Thousands of people took part in the challenge which was described as
a month-long truth-telling journey for people who hold white privilege
to explore their personal complicity in white supremacy.
Following the challenge, Layla wrote and published the self-guided Me
And White Supremacy Workbook, which is a first-of-its-kind personal
reflection tool for people with white privilege to explore,
interrogate, gain clarity on and dismantle their internalised white
supremacy.
