Anti-Racism
Scaffolded Anti-Racist Resources is an extensive Google Document created by Anna Stamborski, Nikki Zimmermann, and Bailie Gregory, M. Div, M.S. Ed.
Description: This is a working document for scaffolding anti-racism resources. The goal is to facilitate growth for white folks to become allies, and eventually accomplices for anti-racist work. These resources have been ordered in an attempt to make them more accessible.
