Thank you to everyone who read and joined in on our first book club pick last month! Untamed proved to be an enjoyable and inspirational first read.

We are excited to announce our book pick for July; a book that will likely be eye-opening and challenging for all of us--Me and White Supremacy: Combat Racism, Change the World, and Become a Good Ancestor by Layla F. Saad.

If you ask us, this book should have been mandatory reading when it was first published..but better late than never. Recent events have reminded us of the harsh injustices and discrimination that exist towards individuals who are Black, Indigenous and people of color and have shown us (again) that there is so much work to do so that we all are actively anti-racist and work to create a fair and equitable world.

Me and White Supremacy is Layla's first book. Initially offered for free following an Instagram challenge under the same name, the best-selling digital Me And White Supremacy Workbook was downloaded by close to ninety thousand people around the world in the space of six months, before becoming a traditionally published book. Layla's work has been brought into homes, educational institutions and workplaces around the world that are seeking to create personal and collective change.

We are looking forward to working through this book with you and having the difficult conversations that are necessary for all of us to learn and heal.
