In the wake of the white supremacist insurrection at the Capitol, it’s as clear as ever that white folks need to step deeper into work for racial justice. Join Shanene Herbert and Lucy Duncan as they describe a free e-course you can take in small groups to deepen your awareness and practice as co-conspirators for real justice.
For many years I have worked with AFSC’s healing justice network to end mass incarceration and build systems that actually support the well-being of our communities. Today, I am reminded of how Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King’s words and spirit continue to provide me with guidance and inspiration in my efforts to defend the human dignity of all. The work of healing justice calls us to set aside our individual sense of comfort for a collective sense of justice.
Since 2017, AFSC has worked with partner organizations as part of the Defund Hate Coalition to demand that Congress stop funding cruelty against immigrants. Thousands of supporters like you across the country have joined us in urging Congress to cut funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP)—and instead invest our tax dollars in health care, education, and other vital programs that benefit all of us.
