Systemic racism shows up in many facets of our lives and is a term that more and more people are hearing on the news and in their communities. And yet, many people may never have talked about what systemic racism means or reflected on the impact of systemic racism on their lives and communities.
This page contains resources to help you engage with this topic. Because conversations about systemic racism at Richland Library have taken many different directions, we've included a complete discussion guide that shows one approach you might take, but also includes additional activity suggestions that may work better for you or your participants.
This conversation guide contains everything you need to facilitate a 90-120 minute discussion on systemic racism, including directions, notes, and visuals.
Feel free to use this as-is or copy and edit it to make it work for your audience.
