Anti-Racism for Global Justice

Comments from organizers about our work:

The workshop changed my life, and my course as an activist. The workshop took off my white blinders and helped me to recognize how white privilege and institutionalized racism are at play in the global justice movement. I gained new tools, and invaluable new perspectives to guide my work. Historically, social movements have exacerbated racial divides. We can not afford to repeat these mistakes.
-Juliette Beck, organizer with Public Citizen

The folks at Anti-Racism for Global Justice project are extremely important allies in our work. So often we encounter such enormous barriers to real grassroots movement building, primarily from white privileged (supposedly) allies that it ends up consuming so much of our time, energy and resources to overcome. But with the CWS folks, we know that we can stand together with them and they'll help strengthen our movement, instead of being an obstacle to it like others would. It is so refreshing to have such allies, their work is so unique yet so incredibly vital that we only wish there were many more folks like them we can work with.
