The authors of the Declaration of Independence outlined a bold vision of a nation in which all people would be free and equal.  We’ve come a long way over the past 146 years but, we still have a long way to go.  Please take a moment to look over the Local, State and National Racial Justice Organizations, additional resources which include Quotes, Racial Justice Statistics, book and film lists, and website resources that we have provided for you.

As long as racism continues we are missing out on what nature gives us as a gift in our community; another’s intelligence, creativity, friendship, passion, humor and leadership.  As a challenge to our community, we ask you to be more aware of racial injustices and make a personal commitment to be more culturally sensitive.  The work of ending racism requires everyone’s efforts to change the hearts and minds of individuals; a task that we at the YWCA take on every day.

Please join us as we work towards greater equality for everyone, and bind our community together.
