CHALLENGE
In ordered for racism to be eradicated, it is absolutely necessary to actively challenge it. On an individual level, challenging racist jokes by not laughing at them and speaking out against them is one way. Another way is standing up for someone who is a victim of racism.
RESEARCH
It is important to become educated on what racism actually is and how it negatively impacts society. Utilize our "What is Racism" page, blog, and "Resources" page to develop a comprehensive understanding. Surround yourself with people who are of a different race and learn from and share with them.
