Jan 16th - National Day of Racial Healing

Lewis & Clark’s Office of Diversity & Inclusion is proud to join the W.K. Kellogg Foundation and people, organizations and communities throughout the U.S. calling for racial healing, celebrating their common humanity and taking collective action to create a more just and equitable world.

The National Day of Racial Healing (#NDORH) on Tuesday, January 16, is a part of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation’s Truth, Racial Healing & Transformation (TRHT) effort – a national and community-based process to plan for and bring about transformational and sustainable change, and to address the historic and contemporary effects of racism.

Below are some online and community resources to aid in conversation about racial healing and also offers way to participate or facilitate racial healing. If you have resources and would like to add please e-mail <vleder@lclark.edu>.
