Heal Your Way Forward: The Co-Conspirator's Guide to an Antiracist Future - Myisha T. Hill

Heal Your Way Forward is a seminal work in anti-racism, guiding white and white-identifying folks to utilize activism for inter-generational healing. In 2018, Myisha T Hill created the Instagram handle, Check Your Priviledge, as a way to undo the harm created between white women and women of the Global Majority. After years of living in the micro- and macro-aggressions of white culture, Myisha was tired of staying silent, but she wanted to do more than fight back, she wanted to heal forward . In just three short years, Check Your Privilege has amassed over 750K followers on Instagram and became of hub of inter-racial activism during the Great White Awakening of 2020. But like many anti-racism activists, Myisha saw the activism abate after the election of President Biden. Heal Your Way Forward: The Co-Conspirator's Guide to an Antiracist Future is the trumpet call to white and white-identifying folks, guiding them to recognize their antiracism work as inter-generational healing. In her first major book, Myisha asks the most critical question of antiracism work: what do we want the world to look like in seven generations? This book is her answer, but also, it's a tactical, practical guide for learning (and unlearning), heal­ing (and feeling through the hurt), and committing (and recommitting) to real change and a reparative future. In this seminal work, Myisha offers readers the ultimate reason to engage in activism - to create a better world not just for our babies, but for our babies' babies - and a clear strategy to change the future and nature of interracial activism by: -Sustaining the great white awakening by discovering the sweet spot of shame and vulnerability -Making room for white tears -Developing radical listening and lifelong learning -Practicing the great act of recommittment -And building a reparative future. As Myisha shares, the more you fail forward, the more you heal your way forward, and the better we can heal the future together. Heal Your Way Forward: The Co-Conspirator's Guide to an Antiracist Future is the book Myisha's 750K followers have been waiting for--a marriage of personal story, antiracist handbook, and an emotional plea to all people to be the change today so we can heal the world for tomorrow.
