Book Review
“Me and White Supremacy”
by Layla F. Saad
When Layla F. Saad began an Instagram
challenge called #MeAndWhiteSuprema-
cy, she never predicted it would spread
so quickly. Using a step-by-step reflec-
tion process, she encouraged people with
white privilege to examine their racist
thoughts and behaviors.
Thousands of people participated in the
challenge, and more than ninety thousand
people down-loaded the “Me and White
Supremacy Workbook.” Since then, the
work has spread to families, book clubs,
educational institutions, nonprofits, cor-
porations, event spaces and more.
Based on the original workbook, “Me
and White Supremacy” teaches readers
to understand their white privilege and
their participation in white supremacy so
that they can stop (often unconsciously)
inflicting damage on people of color and,
in turn, help other white people do better
too.
At this time in history, more than ever
before, people are asking what they can do
to help dismantle white supremacy and
where to begin.
Saad answers: “Begin within. Begin
with you and white supremacy.”
Saad is a writer, speaker, and podcast
host on the topics of race, identity, leader-
ship, personal transformation and social
change.
request materials. Initially there will be a
limit of three items per patron.
Please do not call unless you can pick
up the materials the following day. All

Order Books, DVDs and More
— Now Online!
This week, the library started taking ma-
terial requests, for next-day pickup, online.
Go to the library’s website, www.siu-

The library accepts requests for specific
items — such as “Walk the Wire” by David
Baldacci or Season 3 of “Game of Thrones”
— or topics, such as cozy mysteries or
nonfiction books about World War II.
Each person must leave contact in-
formation because if the material is not
available or not owned by the library, the
library wants to let you know in case you
have substitute requests. Keep in mind
that all materials must be picked up the
following day.
New Book Publication

For those interested in new books that
have not yet been released, please under-
stand that many books have seen their

The library will take requests for these
materials and once published, received
and processed, will process hold requests
in the order received.
