What role does a 101-year organization play upon discerning its history, acknowledging its complicity and embracing its accountability?
We know achieving our goals for racial justice depends on understanding where we may have harmed or have caused harm—either through action or inaction.
We understand that acknowledgment is not enough: We are working to transform those communities, through racial equity-based programs that address immediate needs, and policy advocacy to undo systemic racism and inequality.
This is our work, even as we encourage others to find ways to be active participants in transforming our community.
 Investing in community-based organizations that fight the effects of structural and institutional racism and reduce the inequities we see.
Developing new ways of doing work that puts the decision-making power in the hands of the communities impacted by those funding decisions with the Black Community Building Collective and Indigenous Communities Fund.
Actively working to change the systems that cause inequities in the first place through programmatic work and our advocacy agenda.
Thank you for helping us continue this great work.
