Anti-Racism Peer-Led Teach-In

Racial justice begins with anti-racism. Anti-racism is the active process of identifying and eliminating racism by changing systems, organizational structures, policies, practices, and attitudes so that power is redistributed and shared equitably (University of Calgary). This peer-led teach-in will engage analytical frameworks for examining systemic cultural, social, economic, and political forces in the community along with individual reflection. Our hope is to raise critical consciousness, understand the opportunity for actions, and how our resources can be distributed.

Learning Outcomes

Participants will be able to:

Define anti-racism
Identify 1-2 examples of how racism manifests in daily lives
Recognize their participation in a racist system
Identify structural racism, and
Develop 1-2 action steps

This teach-in is offered as part of the Latinx Heritage Month Program.
