Our spirits are still empowered one week removed from #JustNarratives our first-ever geared towards narrative change. Together, over 450 attendees developed narrative strategies, skillsets, and tactics to ignite our path towards a multiracial democracy.
This is what solidarity looks like.

Even in these uncertain times, we continue our work toward a vision of a multiracial democracy where all people, regardless of race, gender, gender identity, economic status, and abilities can thrive.

Taiwan’s democracy is thriving. Not despite threats, but because they’ve built something remarkable: a whole-of-society defense system run by citizens, not soldiers.

Our colleagues Maria Sennett, Francis Janes, Anil Awasti, and Elsie Rowell joined @raceforward.org's Just Narratives Convening, where speakers like Alok Vaid-Menon urged creating liberatory spaces. We’re energized to keep co-creating them, rooted in dignity and repair, within the banking system.
