The inequities we see around us today obliges us to use our power and privilege to move to action from Ally to Accomplice. This learning journey will engage with artists, advocates, and leaders whose lived experiences in the equity realm will urge us to lean in to the knowledge they share. Each episode will leave us with actions towards identifying and dismantling systemic racism, colonial structures, and creating equitably inclusive spaces for all. I invite you into these conversations on relevant, contemporary, critical matters, that necessitate our movement to Transformative Justice Advocacy because it is the right thing to do, right now.
