'Do Better is a clear, powerful, direct, wise, and extremely helpful treatise on how to combat and heal from the ubiquitous violence of white supremacy. Using a voice that is both passionate and compassionate, Rachel Ricketts instructs where necessary and soothes when needed—but never flinches from the urgency of the mission at hand. These pages are meant not merely to be read, but to be studied, workshopped, and put into daily practice. I would recommend Do Better to anybody who wishes to live a life of higher consciousness and humanity. But to white readers in particular, I say: Pull up a chair, grab a pen, lay down your defenses, and listen very respectfully to Rachel Ricketts. She has offered up an exceedingly valuable resource to a tired, troubled (and all too often delusional) world. This is a book we all need.'

— Elizabeth Gilbert, New York Times bestselling author of Eat Pray Love 

Quotes

  • 'Rachel’s book is a powerful and beautiful example of sharing herself from a deeply heart-centered place, and sharing her knowledge with eloquence, heart, and spirituality. Right now more than ever is a time for everyone to really dive in and do the work, and as a white woman I feel it’s more important than ever to educate ourselves and truly create change in the deepest parts of our lives that we may have been unconscious of. If you, like me, are ready to stop talking and start listening and really take the time to understand, this is the book you MUST read. Thank you Rachel for taking the time to write this incredible book. It was life changing to read.' 

    — Rumer Willis, actress and singer
  • 'Do Better should be required reading for all white women . . .  It was emotional and challenging but in all the ways this work should be.'

    — Mandy Moore, award-winning actress, singer and songwriter
  • 'This is the book we’ve been waiting for. Wow! Rachel provides us with a real, raw and relevant examination into the deep, spiritual and transformative work that we all need right now to heal from the dehumanising structure of white supremacy. We know that white supremacy harms all of us and that the wounds go deep. Thus, we know that the work to heal from this must reach us far beyond the surface level. And that’s what Rachel is offering us here in this book - the deep, beyond the surface excavating, exploration and examination of the multiple places in which white supremacy harms us while offering us tools to fight against that harm and to heal. This is the book that will change lives, if you allow it. A must read and do!'

    — Monique Melton, anti-racism educator
  • 'I love how Rachel writes! Her heartfelt and engaging book is a both a call to action and a toolkit for anybody who wants to play their part in eradicating white supremacy – a mission she reminds us is not about getting it all ‘right’ but doing better every day.' 

    — Ruby Warrington, author, Sober Curious and The Sober Curious Reset
  • 'Rachel's book Do Better is the new bible for all human beings. I hope everyone buys a copy and carries it around in their handbag or backpacks and shares the wisdom she so potently articulates. If you have been unclear, unsure, insecure or downright scared in starting, continuing or deepening your journey towards becoming anti-racist, don't be. Do Better silences all the excuses and is a call to action for everyone to get involved in dismantling the system of white supremacy.'

    — Sima Kumar, Co-founder and CEO, The Other Box
