WHITE SUPREMACY IS ALL AROUND

A powerful, incisive look at where we are in the fight to dismantle white supremacy by the founder and CEO of consulting firm Change Cadet, Dr. Akilah Cadet.

White Supremacy Is All Around arrives as the ongoing racial reckoning has left readers searching for voices they can trust. BIPOC, disabled people, and others that are intentionally ignored want to feel heard and empowered; organization leaders and allies invested in dismantling white supremacy want a framework for how best to contribute. Dr. Akilah Cadet speaks to all these needs, drawing from her life experiences and work helping leading brands build inclusive and equitable cultures to offer an informed perspective that prioritizes belonging. In a series of personal stories told with her trademark candor and wit, Dr. Cadet explores the long-term work required to combat structural oppression from her unique vantage point as a Black disabled woman. She tackles everything: from the 2020 "summer of allyship" and depression caused by workplace discrimination to navigating disability and building a consulting business, all with a little inspiration from Beyoncé. A powerful call for true accompliceship for non-Black people, and a way for Black people to see and celebrate themselves, White Supremacy Is All Around ushers in a new voice that is timely, urgent, and essential - and a vision we all need now.
