Have you ever thought that America's racial issues were someone else's problem? As an older white male I have certainly thought that. After a 12-year anti-racist journey I now believe that we must all do our part to reduce racism in our communities.
Jarvis and I have been working together for several years now to encourage one another in our anti-racist efforts. This website allows us to share our efforts and includes other specific resources that could help you to build your own anti-racist understanding. Here are some important questions that we should all consider as we journey together. Our growing awareness of these issues will help America to reach its pledged purpose of "Liberty and Justice for All".
1. Did you know that America’s diversity continues to increase, while white America decreases as a percentage of our population?
2. Are you aware that most white Americans have few if any Black friends, and therefore lack reference to the lived experiences of our fellow Black citizens?
3. Shouldn't our government policies be helping to reduce ongoing systemic racism rather than our politics exacerbating these problems? Vote because democracy depends on it.
4. How can I become part of the solution to racism in America? White Americans must become part of the solution for our still-segregated nation to reach its full potential as a diverse democracy. Black Americans are about 12% of our population and we must all work on becoming anti-racists.
