The White Bonus WAGThis month, we’ll be talking about reparations, and how we think about them as white people, using this article (https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/22/us/the-white-bonus-book-tracie-mcmillan-cec/index.html) as a springboard.

 This is an interview with Tracie McMillan, who wrote The White Bonus, a book that attempts to calculate, in real dollars, the amount that specific people or families have accrued thanks to policies that preferentially benefit white people. After reading it, we encourage to spend some time thinking about your own family and history, and how you might quantify this in your life.
 
WAG is an intentional space for people who identify as white to work on dismantling the internalized white supremacy in our bodies, feelings, thoughts and behaviors. We welcome you to join us for this meeting, whether you've attended WAG in the past or are new to the group. If you're interested, or would like to be on our email list to keep up with what we're discussing, please register here.
