Tauiwi Caucus Presents - Anti-Racism in Feminist Organizations
Channel: TOAH NNEST
Date: 2021-05-17

Dr Manjeet Birk presents:

Globally feminist activists and non profit organizations have had a long history of being at the forefront of critical activism and social justice reform. Despite this important history feminist organizations can and do encounter implementation and maintenance challenges especially as it relates to anti-racism. 

Based on interviews conducted with racialized and Indigenous activists in Vancouver, Canada, this webinar examines the structural racism that defines their experiences in feminist nonprofit organizations. Informed by critical race theory, composite counterstories shed light on activist experiences of race, racism and systemic exclusion. 

Throughout this session Manjeet will review findings from her research and showcase some of the common pitfalls in navigating anti-racism in feminist organizations. She will also provide a series of calls to action that can help organizations think through how to navigate these complexities for more inclusive policy and program delivery.
