Starting a Community Conversation:Exploring Racism and Othering

Racism is an ugly reality that has been around for centuries. It is a system of prejudice and discrimination based on the belief that one race is superior to another. Racism can manifest itself in many forms, including verbal abuse, exclusion, and violence. Unfortunately, racism still exists in our society today and it is important to recognize its presence and work towards eliminating it.

We must strive to create a more inclusive society where everyone can live free of fear or prejudice based on the color of their skin or ethnicity. It will take hard work, dedication, and understanding from all involved to make sure that racism does not continue to be a part of our lives.
