Read An Excerpt

A privileged white person writes about being a privileged white person. This is usually where I check out . . . White Picket Fences, however, is something else. It is a gift.

White Picket Fences is her most compelling book yet, tackling one of the thorniest topics of our time and illuminating it with honesty, humility, and hope.
Andy CrouchAuthor of Strong and Weak
I was pulled in from page one by Amy Julia’s writing, which is warm, honest, and inviting as she beautifully explores her own life and story of privilege. Compelling, wise, and vital.
