Demanding Racial Equity in Human Services Delivery

11/10/2018

0 Comments

 
This week, I was at the Kresge Foundation to talk with other field leaders about the current state of human services and think about how institutions create barriers to social and economic mobility.  This work is personal and political. It is grounded in experience and data.  It requires courage and humility.  We had honest conversations about doing the work towards equity at home and at work.....and at both. 

I particularly appreciated the model of ProInspire that names the stages: 
  • Awake - coming to understand the realities of white supremacy and how it permeates our culture
  • Woke - feeling compelled to speak and make visible this reality for others
  • Work - doing thing to combat this existing system - teaching, curriculum development, programs, writing, actions. 
There is urgency to this work.  And we all must take the steps necessary in our own lives to be part of the solution to where we find ourselves today.
