Sharon's Anti-Racism Newsletter

Sharon's Anti-Racism Newsletter is hands down the most informative thing in my inbox. Her straight-talking erudition always challenges and educates. So much so, that I had to make a whole folder in my link collection just for the things she shares. If you want to support an incredibly talented Black writer and further your anti-racism education, look no further. Racism is so pervasive that we sometimes fail to notice which of our 'benign' (but ultimately erroneous) beliefs are rooted in questionable social conditioning and an incomplete understanding of history. Learn, absorb, push back and grow. I don't believe it's Sharon's style to say it this way so I will: you're bloody welcome for this gift.

Sharon’s newsletter is one of the few I read every single word of, every single issue. If you’re serious about widening horizons, learning about what the world is like for people who look different, sound different, live different, experience things differently from yourself, and want to make a better world for everyone, this is the place! It’s a teeny investment for a big juicy reward.

I’m a paid subscriber and highly recommend! White people wanting to learn more about how the world is for non-white people- it’s the bitesized weekly knowledge shot you’ve been waiting for. Well written, easy to digest.

It's a great newsletter, powerful & insightful, and one of the few must reads in my inbox on a regular basis.

Subscribing to your newsletter has been fundamental to my personal and professional development. Thank you.

I love the way you use personal experiences to illustrate general learning points. I love your generosity in introducing and celebrating other writers and their work.

I've learned so much from this newsletter, and discovered amazing people doing great work through the interviews. I am relatively new on the anti-racism education journey and really appreciate the "guide" that this newsletter provides.

SARN, along with other essential resources from Sharon Hurley Hall, have been indispensable assets in my personal anti-racism journey. She has helped me see the world through a variety of diverse, meaningful lenses.

The topics are always relevant to some aspect of my life and work. SARN helps me frame and understand the world from a lens that I, as a white woman, do not have. I have found other anti-racism writers and channels through articles shared here

SARN and Sharon’s book “I’m tired of racism” are a must read, Sharon allow us non-Black people of the global majority to have a glance of the experiences of Black people not only from the perspective of one location (US) but multiple locations. As well it allows us non-Black people of the global majority to recognize when we are enacting anti-Blackness even when it oppresses all of us as well. Thank you Sharon for all your work

SARN is an exceptional resource for staying up-to-date on anti-racism from a global citizen perspective. Sharon's writing style is accessible, engaging, relevant and always timely. I can't recommend it highly enough.

SARN is an informative, empathic and excellent resource for people dedicated to antiracism and to learning how to be truly antiracist in all spheres of their lives. I am in awe of the work Sharon Hurley-Hall does and feel grateful to be a part of her network. She has expanded my network, and has deepened my commitment as an antiracist educator and activist.

I find it very interesting and educational in the very best way. I'm a Museum Educator and Living Historian specialising in the history of traditionally disenfranchised people, and for the past 29 years, it's been slavery history. The things I read often help me explain the continuum from slavery to the present day.

I know that I am not a member of the global majority, yet I live in a world where those who are white and have been "whited" comprise the dominant culture. Reading SARN articles helps me learn, helps me see, and provides content that can spark change where change is most effective - in one heart at a time.

Sharon Hurley Hall's Anti-Racism Newsletter provides invaluable perspectives on experiences of racism and intersectionality. SARN has introduced me to a variety of other voices and resources, but what I appreciate most are Sharon's personal views on her experiences and world events

As an author, what I put out into the world has a lot of potential to do harm. I'm doing my best to educate myself, and this is perfect to read with my morning cup of tea or while I'm brushing my teeth. It's a fantastic complement to other resources - I might not have time to sit down and read for an hour, but I definitely have time to read an email.

I've shared this newsletter with many friends from various backgrounds. What Sharon provides, as well as what her guests provide, helps break down the misconceptions, the microaggressions, and frankly, the blindness to it all. In today's environment, it's a must-read newsletter.
