DescriptionLocation American Racism: The Legal Evolution At every step within the evolution of America, racism has been a structural foundation. The unofficial and then official business leaders and government have built and upheld racist policies to maintain the separation and unequal power between whites and all people of color. This video explores the history that shaped the evolution of race. Colorblindness and other untruths The idea that individuals and systems could or should simply “not see race” is a relatively new one in American history. But is it a positive stance or frame of reference? Or does one’s assertion to being “colorblind” dismiss the experiences and values of our racial identity? Explore other “untruths” that many hold, that should be debunked. The Misunderstanding of White Privilege The term “white privilege” is often misunderstood and comes with negative perceptions. It’s important to understand how power and privilege plays itself out on different levels, and how the sociology and negative perceptions of race and ethnicity perpetuates continued privileges. Systems that Support Supremacy Racism is systemic and structural.

Disruptive Discussion: White Privilege & White Fragility Racism is systemic and structural. Systemic and structural racism are forms of racism that are pervasively and deeply embedded in systems, laws, written or unwritten policies. This has resulted in inequitable practices allowing the unfair treatment, adverse consequences and oppression of people of color. Becoming an Ally, it’s a VERB! In this episode of DISRUPTIVE DISCUSSIONS, D.Z. Swift and Dion Jordan talk about what it means to be an ally. It’s more than identifying discriminatory behaviors in others or wanting to support people when discrimination and oppression occurs. Being an ally is a VERB, which means action. What is anti-racism? Anti racism is not only believing in racial equity but actively and strategically making changes to a social system that has been built upon the oppression and discrimination of people based on their race and/or ethnicity. An antiracist is an advocate for and an ally to those who are commonly disenfranchised and marginalized. So, if you’re an anti-racist you speak up when you see an act of discrimination because you believe that all people have the same rights to fair treatment and justice. Anti racism consciously aims to take actions against such beliefs and to dismantle the existing structures that have created and continue to support racism.
