9 in 10 Native women who experience sexual assault were assaulted by someone outside of their community, someone of another race. - Tarana Burke. This is a racial justice issue! #FacingRace

“It’s time to give up the term ‘intersectionality.’ Allyship is beautiful, but we’re talking about black and brown girls. If these people get what they need, white women will get what they need” Linda Sarsour and Tarana Burke #FacingRace

If, like us, you’re trying to figure out how to be part of the solution, here are five key things we recently learned about being an effective advocate for racial justice >> benjerrys.co/facing-race #FacingRace

'Emergent Strategy' by adriennemareebrown is blowing my mind. Thank the universe for allowing me to go to Facing Race!

I'm only 60 pages in and this book has already had an impact on my life, my work, and the folks who I lead with.

The most beautiful interactive storytelling I have ever seen was this Puerto Rican scroll in Detroit just now #FacingRace

'White supremacy is fueled and feeds off of anti-Black racism. This is all the more reason to center the Black community in our work to advance racial justice.' - Judith Browne Dianis Advancement Project #FacingRace Race Forward

Listening to Glenn Harris speak on the origins (and deep roots) of injustice yet the prospect for hope in a multi-racial, truly democratic society is a nuanced blend of resilient urgency. Powerful week. Indeed, indescribable power & all the grace to Race Forward. #FacingRace

'The very definition of 'race' is a white supremacist notion. It is not my job to reinforce white supremacy in America. My job is to destroy [it] as an ideology. This is how everyone (including white folks) can be freed.' Eric K. Ward (Woke Since 1619), Western States Center #FacingRace Race Forward

We need more:
1. FRIENDS in the movement, not just allies or co-conspirators. 2. Relationship w each other + the horizon. We're not gonna do it alone. 3. Relationship w the land.
