Doing My Homework


I really haven’t known what to say. 

But that's the thing about white privilege that I'm beginning to understand. I haven't had to say anything. 

So I’ve been doing my homework: listening to and reading work from political and religious leaders and writers. And the plan for now is to do more reading and talking with my kids, praying, and offering financial support.

In looking for books about combating racism, I started here. The consensus of what to read first, from a variety of sources, seems to be White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo. I'll start there.
