What We Believe

  • Racism is the oppression of people due to the social construct of race backed by a system of racism that confers privilege and power on White people

​

  • While structural racism is the foremost barrier to equity in the U.S., systems are comprised of individuals and therefore individuals must change to dismantle racism

​

  • The ripples of antiracist change can positively impact entire communities 

​

  • The work of being antiracist has a beginning, it does not have an end

​

  • While growth requires discomfort, it also requires care and dignity

​

  • A deep understanding of intersecting identities is important in being antiracist

​

  • The goal of antiracism is equity
