Nonprofit Jenni Show

Educating Your Staff and Supporters About Equity - Part 1

Informações:

Synopsis

Ongoing events like the spread of COVID-19 and #BlackLivesMatter have recently made inequities in our healthcare, educational, correctional, and other systems more obvious on a national level. Fortunately, we’ve seen many nonprofits revisit their Diversity / Equity / Inclusion (DEI) policies (or build completely new ones from scratch) as a result. This week, Jenni speaks again with thought leader and advocate Jon Royal to discuss an example of how your nonprofit can promote equity and racial justice in your community. This episode is Part 1 of 2 -- look for Part 2 next week! In this podcast episode, Jon and Jenni mention several resources, including: --Jenni’s Racial Justice Awareness Kit, available at nonprofitjenni.com/coursesandmore --Chenjerai Kumanyika, who you can find on Twitter at twitter.com/catchatweetdown --The podcast “Seeing White”, which you can find at sceneonradio.org/seeing-white --The book “The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America” by Richard Rothstein
