Anti-Racist Learning Circle

The Anti-Racist Learning Circle is a space for white Senior Fellows to be in dialogue about how white people can be anti-racist leaders, and co-conspirators with people of color, for equity and belonging. This group explores historical and current systemic, structural and interpersonal racism. In this group, we:

-Examine white fragility and how it shows up personally and institutionally
-Explore what it means to be actively anti-racist and how to become an ally and co-conspirator
-Provide a space to struggle and grapple with your own internalized racism

Racial caucuses can provide “opportunities for those who share a common identity to meet separately to gather, connect, and learn.” Often, “caucusing can be a valuable component of an organization’s broader racial justice and equity and inclusion efforts,” including time in separate caucuses and time together in a multi-racial community. ALF is also continuing and deepening the work of bringing people together to build understanding and relationships across differences.
