When Layla Saad began an Instagram challenge called #meandwhitesupremacy, she never predicted it would spread as widely as it did. She encouraged people to own up and share their racist behaviors, big and small. She was looking for truth, and she got it. Thousands of people participated in the challenge, and over 90,000 people downloaded the Me and White Supremacy Workbook.

Excellent guide to dismantling White Supremacy

I really enjoyed listening to this book. I learned much and will continue work to "call out" and "call in" the damaging work of white supremacy.

The stark grief of a brother mourning a brother opens this novel with a stunning, unforgettable experience. Here, in a monumental saga of love and rage, Baldwin goes back to Harlem, to the church of his groundbreaking novel Go Tell It on the Mountain, to the homosexual passion of Giovanni's Room, and to the political fire that inflames his nonfiction work.

In this “vital, necessary, and beautiful book” (Michael Eric Dyson), antiracist educator Robin DiAngelo deftly illuminates the phenomenon of white fragility and “allows us to understand racism as a practice not restricted to 'bad people'" (Claudia Rankine). Referring to the defensive moves white people make when challenged racially, white fragility is characterized by emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt and by behaviors including argumentation and silence. These behaviors, in turn, function to reinstate white racial equilibrium and prevent meaningful cross-racial dialogue.

Revisado: 03-27-19
A must read. An indepted analysis of racism at its core. How is it possible for any group to progress when practically every act, law, decision, in a society is stacked against them? Western (American) society has deep rooted racial issues. Sadly, all were (are) manufactured, embedded, and supported by a dorminate white group. The challenging journey continues....

Bridging women's history, the history of the South, and African-American history, this audiobook makes a bold argument about the role of white women in American slavery. Historian Stephanie E. Jones-Rogers draws on a variety of sources to show that slave-owning women were sophisticated economic actors who directly engaged in and benefited from the South's slave market.

I did not fully understand just how central and significant was the role played by white women during slavery. This books offers and in-depth look inside that world. Very enlightening.

A self-educated man, Eric Hoffer was most likely born in 1898. He wrote in his spare time after doing shifts on the San Francisco docks, where he continued to work, even after becoming a successful author. Hoffer began writing The True Believer in the 1940s, as Nazism and fascism spread across Europe. Most analysts who were trying to work out how these movements became so powerful focused on their leaders and the ideas they trumpeted.

Enlightening. Very informative. As I look back on mass gathering/protest, I now have a greater appreciation for how many originate.

The biggest paradox in golf is that the harder you try to hit the ball, the worse you do so. In The Keys to the Effortless Golf Swing, Michael McTeigue offers you a simple system of sequential body movements that produces a true swinging motion with every club in the bag. The result is increased distance and greater accuracy for all sizes, shapes, and ages of golfers for a minimum investment in learning time.

My Swing
Revisado: 09-09-18
The swing keys provided in this book were extremely helpful. My tendency was to over-swing prior to reading this book. Now that I've spent considerable hours practicing the swing keys contained herein, my swing feels more effortless and effective results are more often achieved. Thanks!
