Racism has been consciously and systematically erected, and it can be undone only if people understand what it is, where it comes from, how it functions, and why it is perpetuated. This training challenges participants to analyze the structures of power and privilege that hinder social equity and prepares community members to be effective organizers for justice. Come join other Kent County residents in this process!
Stepne Station, 400 South Cross Street, Chestertown MD

Racism is America will only be “undone” when everyone at the table acknowledges that it’s no longer a problem
that is attributed to white folks only. It’s this kind of thinking that not only hinders race relations in America
but only creates more polarization and divisiveness in the end. To think racism is limited to a person’s skin color
would be the same as stating that intelligence is determined by someone’s ethnic background, which ironically would
be a racist thought or belief.

Primary evidence of racism on the Eastern Shore has to do with skin color – African Americans, Latinos – It was in Nazi Germany that Jews were victims of it.
