In a moment unlike any we have faced as a global community, Race Forward believes that Racial Justice is more important than ever. In order to embed Racial Equity into all of our day to day operations as well as our responses in this moment we must continue to hold fast to a commitment that enables us to learn, grow and practice racial equity work together.
As the world continues to adapt to threats against democracy, we will continue to offer virtual learning spaces that center on normalizing, organizing, and operationalizing racial equity into our work at every intersection.
The Virtual Building Racial Equity series, developed by Race Forward: The Center for Racial Justice Innovation, is an interactive training for those who wish to sharpen their skills and strategies to address systemic racism and advance racial equity. Unlike “diversity trainings,” which primarily focus on interpersonal relations and understanding, these trainings emphasize how to challenge and change institutional racial inequities.
Building Racial Equity: Foundations is the first and “foundational” training of the series. Participants will build on and strengthen racial equity practices for themselves and their organizations and networks. This training will introduce participants to concepts, frames, and tools that are essential to a productive racial equity practice. Attending this training is required to participate in subsequent trainings.
