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
