Saad has designed this book not only to be read, but actively participated in through journaling and deep inner work. We must be willing to accept that it is a LIFE-LONG journey to unlearn our own white supremacy and to transform our world and the other white people around us. Decide that you commit to doing this work FOR LIFE, not just in the moment where it is making news headlines. This book will give any white person on the journey of anti-racism extremely needed, deep and uncomfortable learnings that are critical for the practice of anti-racism. # “Challenging emotions like shame, anger, grief, rage, apathy, anxiety, and confusion will come up for you if you are doing this work deeply. Don’t run away from those feelings. Feeling the feelings - which are an appropriate human response to racism and oppression - is an important part of the process. When you allow yourself to feel those feelings, you wake up. You rehumanize yourself. You start to realize that you weren’t feeling these feelings before because you had shut down a part of your humanity in order to participate in white supremacy. White supremacy purposely numbs you to the pain that your racism causes. Doing this work brings back the real feelings of pain of what committing racism actually feels like physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. The purpose of this work is not for you to end up living in shame. The purpose of this work is not for you to end up living in shame. The purpose is to get you to see the truth so that you can do something about it. No matter how bad it feels to wake up to the pain, shame, and guilt of your racism, those feelings will never come anywhere close to the pain BIPOC experience as a result of your racism. So instead of getting stuck or overwhelmed, channel those feelings into action and change. Talking to a friend, family member, support group, therapist, or coach will be helpful in supporting you to process what is coming up for you so you can keep moving forward.” # My Booklist: bit.ly/mcgreads (in bio) #McGReads」6月18日 2時05分
