Advocacy Weadvocate for changes in state and local policy to rectify the effects of massincarceration, institutional racism, and economic inequality. This includessupporting fair policing practices, progressive economic policy, livable wages,and communities that value diversity, inclusion, and equity. Racial Healing Theeffects of institutional, structural, and interpersonal racism are perniciousand long lasting. People of color (this includes Black people, Latinos, Asians,and Native Americans) have long suffered the effects of social andeconomic racial discrimination. The Coalition believes that it is necessary forpeople of all races to acknowledge the need for racial healing and collectivelywork towards a just society. We do this through educational activities andempathy building programs. |
