John,
The most important Facing Race in the history of the conference starts
in just two days. We need this moment! Together, with movement makers,
community organizers, activists, and artists we will strategize how to
build the path forward to advance racial justice.
What we know is that the incoming administration has laid out their plan
for the next four years and beyond in Project 2025—a blueprint for
destabilization that will have devastating impacts on communities of
color. Yet, we in the racial justice movement have pushed through
periods that have been filled with grief and despair before. We know we
can protect our communities while creating a world that is built in our
vision of justice and equity.
Held in St. Louis, Missouri, this year's conference takes place from
November 20 through November 22, and will draw together more than 4,000
attendees. And there's still a chance for you to join us virtually for
select sessions. Please check it out, and tune in for our keynote speech
from Joy-Ann Reid.

We're also coming to you to ask for your support. The reason we can make

you more than ever before.

At Facing Race we will ground ourselves in the power we can build when
our communities unite. We can serve as a force for equity and justice.
We will be working on how to embed democratic principles into our
systems and processes, how to shift agency capacity to enacting people
of color led solutions, and how to institutionalize a commitment to
advancing equity when the executive branch threatens the very existence
of democracy itself.
Thank you for your support of Race Forward, our biennial conference
Facing Race, and our mission to advance equity in our institutions and
our culture. It's more vital than ever before that we lean on and learn
from each other. Please consider a donation today to help us carry on.
Sincerely,
Glenn Harris
President, Race Forward
