Experts have inundated us with lectures and books about white privilege. According to these experts, “White supremacy is arguably the most complex social system of the last several hundred years.” White privilege, rather the evil of white privilege/white supremacy, is being taught in our schools, and not just universities. Are there white people who believe they are better than others because of the colour of their skin? Yes. And we are working hard to undo the damage of those beliefs. Seems we have not learned any lesson from those biases. Today, the path is to attack white people; for being born white and therefore innately superior and privileged.
Who are these “experts” whose books are being promoted to teachers and schools and the rest of society?
One is Layla F Saad and her book, “me and white supremacy,”a resource for white people.
The book came about following her free month-long Instagram challenge during the summer of 2018. She knew her audience. Her book has also been recommended for teachers to read so they can look inside themselves and find that active and passive racism that lurks within, and work diligently to remove it. She describes herself as an East African, Black, Muslim woman, born in Cardiff Wales, living for a time in Great Britain, before moving with her family to Qatar, where she now lives with her husband and children.. She thinks of herself as sitting at “a unique intersection of identities” from where she can help white people “work with the intention of creating a new world where Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC) live with dignity and equality” and remove “oppression and marginalization.”
