ANTI-RACISM ACCOUNTABILITY
Find us on Facebook
Zoom Meeting Thursday, 7pm
Click here for link
This group is a place for white queer folks and allies to do the hard work involved in developing anti-racist practices. This group is not exclusionary towards any race but we understand it is the responsibility of white people to develop ways to address, acknowledge and counteract our own internalized biases, as well as our white privilege. Our goal is not performative allyship, but we are looking to develop concrete and accessible actions.
