Community invited to accept Racial Justice Challenge
The University of Maine Raymond H. Fogler Library and the Office for Diversity and Inclusion will host the Racial Justice Challenge. Each day during the Aug. 3–7 online event, participants will receive an email with several tasks designed for them to learn, listen, share and take action regarding race, racism and anti-racism.
The challenge will explore how to be anti-racist (versus “not racist”), move beyond a single story, examine issues of race in the media and design a personalized racial justice plan.
The Racial Justice Challenge is open to the public. All interested can register and complete the challenge at their own pace.
