Antiracism: Allies, Accomplices & Co-conspirators
Historically, it’s been people of color who have pushed back most strongly against racism, racial injustice, and white privilege. However, for real systemic change to occur, white people – who still hold the majority of institutional power within those systems – must join with people of color by becoming Allies, Accomplices and Co-conspirators to effect that change.
So what does it mean to be an Ally, an Accomplice, a Co-conspirator? We will discuss what these designations really mean and what we can do in our everyday lives to become one.
Please review the attached program materials before our call.
Awakening to Change is designed to help unify our community by developing a shared understanding of the history, policy, and experiences shaping contemporary discussions of race. We tackle a new topic each month, sometimes reading books, discussing films, or learning from articles. All are welcome to join!
