Racial Justice

 

Racial justice is the systematic fair treatment of people of all races, resulting in equitable opportunities and outcomes for all. Racial justice — or racial equity — goes beyond “anti-racism.” It is not just the absence of discrimination and inequities, but also the presence of deliberate systems and supports to achieve and sustain racial equity through proactive and preventative measures.  We would like to use this page as a resource for those who are looking to engage more in the topic of racial justice.  Now, more than ever, we need to stand together to fight against long-standing systemic racism.
