John,
I'm Nikko Viquiera, a longtime racial equity trainer at Race Forward.
One of the questions I frequently get asked in my 7+ years of training
here is how, exactly, does racial equity training support a multiracial
democracy? And, how can we keep it going?
[link removed]
So let me explain.
Here are three of the seven key principles we apply to all our
trainings. These concepts have been developed over more than 40 years of
research, application, iteration, and collaboration with our people–the
trainers, trainees, and multiracial communities we serve and come from.
Learning and action must be connected. Training prepares people to take
action, and it is through action that people learn the most.
We emphasize bold and viable solutions. To move forward, it's essential
to develop practical strategies and creative proposals. We aim to move
people from divisive patterns of engagement to those that are
constructive, productive, and empowering.
We focus on racially equitable systems change more than personal change.
Personal development trainings don't go far enough to affect
institutional and structural change. When we teach racially equitable
systems change, people can organize and operationalize change on a much
larger scale.
Thousands of people have taken our trainings and gone back to their
communities, with actionable next steps to build a racially just future.
Many of them have created lasting change that is scalable and
repeatable.
And that's how we use training to support a thriving, multiracial
democracy. Now that you know a bit more about how we do it, do you agree
that everyone should have access to the skills they need to create
change for racial justice?
If so, I humbly ask you to
