Yesterday we shared on Facebook that our staff is working to create more inclusive spaces for people of all backgrounds and identities, and as part of that we are taking a critical look at our practices and norms internally to see how they may be exclusionary or unwelcoming for some. As part of that ongoing work, we read White Supremacy Culture, From Dismantling Racism: A Workbook for Social Change Groups, by Kenneth Jones and Tema Okun (and we shared that reading on Facebook as part of our post). We then used this piece as a lens through which we analyzed our internal practices to see how we were or were not propagating the themes within. Our next steps include identifying specific parts of our culture we feel we can work to make more inclusive, and finding ways to do so.
