A dedicated anti-racist organization, the Alliance for Rights and Recovery takes dismantling racism seriously inside and outside of our coalition and wider community. Internally, we have reviewed all of our practices, policies, and culture and provide continual training and education for staff and volunteers to equip them with the tools and knowledge they need to effectively combat racism. Externally, we engage in advocacy, activism, and partnership-building that promotes racial equity and justice. In all of our work, we prioritize amplifying the voices of people and communities experiencing marginalization and ensuring they are represented and involved in our decision-making processes. By centering anti-racism, we believe we can eliminate racism in our own practices and community, helping build a more equitable and just society. To learn more, go to https://lnkd.in/eHr69RKX

In case you're not too clear what's actually meant by the term 'white privilege' this is a useful checklist. It's important to understand that this describes the advantages or sometimes simply lack of disadvantages of being perceived as having white skin. It does not mean that the same person might not experience other disadvantages eg because of a disability, class or sexual orientation (just naming a few - many more could be added), it simply means that their skin colour doesn't trigger any discrimination or disadvantage. And in our white supremacy culture this weighs a lot! #whiteprivilege #whitesupremacy
What does privilege look like? ?? Understanding and admitting to your own privilege can help you understand and empathise with those who don't have the same privilege. In turn this can help you take action to support those who face barriers, discrimination and a lack of representation every day. ??
