Anti-Oppression Resources
MACUHO,
We share these resources with a call to action. We are responsible for dismantling white supremacy in our communities, organizations, institutions, and homes. But most importantly, for those of us who are white, we are responsible for dismantling white supremacy in ourselves.
Before sharing this list of resources, guides, links, etc… we are reminded of a quote from this Medium article by Catherine Pugh, Esq.:
“Oprah’s internet has volumes of “White Ally” guides: Becoming an Anti-Racist White Ally; The Challenges of Becoming a White Ally; Guidelines for Being A Strong White Ally; Becoming A Trustworthy White Ally; and, my all-time favorite, The White Ally Playbook. Really, though? Really? Here is my book: Stop Being Racist; Get Your People, Too. That’s it. That’s the whole book.”
Keep this in mind as a litmus test as you confront racism in all of its forms.
