Our 21-Day Challenge is meant to inspire and fuel. Liberation work is collective work, relationship work after all.
We find working in groups, building community, sometimes just to break bread and be together, makes the work sustainable.
How do we get back on track? How do we simultaneously center our humanity and need to restore and keep the movement towards liberation going? When we burnout, white supremacy wins. What happened? Was becoming antiracist harder tha n white people expected? Did the pandemic play a role? What we do know is that as the movement to recalibrate white supremacy through book bans, policy rollbacks, and violence towards historically targeted groups flourished, the commitment to antiracism waned. In year two, just as many Black people, Indigenous people, and other people of color predicted, momentum stagnated. Droves of white people new to antiracism stepped up. In the year following George Floyd’s brutal murder, a racial reckoning swept the globe.
