Layla F. Saad: Writing, Reading and Exploring Beyond Me and White Supremacy

Layla F. Saad is an author, speaker, and teacher on the topics of race, identity, leadership, personal transformation and social change.  She is the New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author of the groundbreaking book Me and White Supremacy, the host of the Good Ancestor Podcast, and the founder of The Good Ancestor Book Club. 

In the conversation today, we hear about Layla’s latest reads, and what reading rituals look like between reading for work and reading for the podcast. Layla shares her desires and drive to celebrate Black authors and authors of color from all genres, and how reading sci-fi can help offer support when the world feels like it’s falling apart.  Layla tells us about her podcast and what experiences in the creative process of writing the YA Edition of Me and White Supremacy was like.
