The Village Method - TVM’s Post

The path to achieving racial equity is non-linear; organizations should start adopting changes from their current position in this endeavor. Thanks to BoardSource for releasing this valuable resource.

NEW WEBINAR ALERT: Thank yoy to our friends at Green 2.0 for this timely session! Session description: In 2023, conservative activists seeking to reverse progress that makes our society more equitable, launched an attack on diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ). As we enter 2024, organizations and DEIJ leaders are working diligently to protect this critical work and evaluate how to continue to defend equity and justice for all. Join Green 2.0 for a conversation with leaders working on equity to discuss expectations for 2024 and how we can strengthen our commitment to equity and justice in the face of these challenges. https://lnkd.in/g2CUU4DV

In our society, the importance of navigating difficult conversations on race cannot be overstated. Acknowledging and addressing racial disparities, biases, and systemic inequities is essential for fostering understanding, empathy, and ultimately, positive change. Engaging in open and honest discussions about race provides a platform for individuals to share their experiences, perspectives, and concerns, contributing to a richer and more nuanced understanding of the complexities surrounding this critical issue. These conversations serve as a catalyst for dismantling stereotypes and challenging preconceived notions, promoting a culture of inclusivity and tolerance. Navigating difficult discussions on race requires courage, active listening, and a commitment to self-reflection. By confronting discomfort head-on, individuals and communities can work towards dismantling deeply ingrained prejudices, fostering unity, and creating a more just and equitable society. Embracing the challenge of discussing race openly is not only about individual growth but also about building collective resilience. These conversations lay the groundwork for systemic change, paving the way for policies and practices that address racial injustice at its roots. It is through these discussions that we can collectively move towards a future where every individual is valued, and diversity is celebrated as a source of strength rather than a point of division. Join us next Thursday, January 30th at 7:00 pm for our Equity At Work webinar where we will discuss Navigating Difficult Conversations on Race. Register here: https://lnkd.in/emkkpm5H

We are living in the most prosperous time in human history, but it is a tale of two realities. In a world that has cured disease and invented artificial intelligence, 700 million people still live in extreme poverty. For them, the basic struggle of survival still looks the same as it did a century ago. History has shown us that if systems leave so many behind, we stop moving forward, and eventually, those systems break. On May 1-2, at #GlobalCitizenNOW, we will take on how we can work together to fix our system today, starting with the most urgent issues.
