FSNE 21-Day Racial Equity Challenge
Anti-Racism Work | Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) | Food Justice
A self-guided learning journey for individuals and groups for examining the history and impacts of racism and inequities and how they are connected to our food system. The Challenge is updated every year with new daily prompts, resources and inspirational examples of dismantling racism and inequities in ourselves, our communities and our culture.
Elements of the Challenge
- daily email prompts (readings, video, audio) that take about 10-15 minutes each (with optional “deeper dive” materials)
- a launch webinar (recorded so that late joiners can view it as well) orienting participants to the Challenge
- a printable/PDF Discussion Guide to support groups at schools, colleges, businesses, churches or other organizations that may want to do the Challenge together
- online discussion forums for those who may want to talk about the daily prompts and other learning along the way
- New in 2020: extra support for Racial Equity Challenge facilitators (i.e. groups withing businesses, schools, organizations, etc.) to help make discussions during the Challenge more helpful and relevant. This will take the form of a facilitators’ webinar, one-day in person facilitators’ workshop at UNH (limited capacity), and mini grants of up to $1000 for New England based groups (in collaboration with New England Grassroots Environment Fund and the Garfield Foundation) to support group convenings and discussions related to the Racial Equity Challenge
