Reclaim's White Anti-Racist Caucus (aka WARC) will be providing a space for white Reclaim members to deepen their understanding of systemic racism and white supremacy and to deepen their self-interested stake in dismantling patriarchal racial capitalism. At this meeting we will be diving into:
Levels of racism: from individual and interpersonal to institutional and structural racism
Identifying white shame and why reactions rooted in shame and guilt prevent us from taking action to dismantle oppression
How structural racism, capitalism, and patriarchy are intricately linked and how they manifest in our communities
White people’s own experience of cultural trauma and loss stemming from white supremacy
White people’s role in fighting against structural racism and for collective liberation.
