anti-racism Challenges

Each of our Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Challenges encourage you and give you tools to eventually become an anti-racist which doesn’t require that you always know the right thing to say or do in any given situation. Anti-racism asks that you take action and work against racism wherever you find it including—and perhaps most especially—in yourself.

Discussion groups are the heart and soul of our Challenges. To find out about up-coming Challenges, please subscribe to our weekly newsletter or email the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Group.
