MCEI Members,
Thank you for joining us for MCEI’s July program titled, Where Do We Go From Here? presented by Sue Bennett (executive director) and Grace Chien (board chair) of Leadership Tomorrow.
The presentation focused on Leadership Tomorrow’s journey to embed conversations about racial equity, diversity and inclusion across all of their work – and throughout the organization.
Following last month’s presentation, MCEI members requested a copy of Leadership Tomorrow’s new values statement – as well as any racial equity consultants/facilitators which they could share.
Below are links to Leadership Tomorrow’s various racial equity statements and documents, followed by a list of consultants/facilitators (some of whom specialize in working with specific genders, trauma recovery, and/or affinity groups):
LT’s Racial Equity Statement of Beliefs and Values – a guiding document for the organization.
LT’s Racial Equity Commitments – a growing list of ways in which we are operationalizing these statements and holding ourselves accountable.
Website Page Devoted to Resources and Actions – a compilation of antiracism resources and action. This is not an exhaustive list; there are many resources available to deepen your antiracism work.
The following list of facilitators have expertise working with mostly white groups, racial equity beginners (our speakers’ term for groups which are early in their journey of understanding implicit bias and institutional racism), and corporate teams. Leadership Tomorrow worked with Anu Taranath (anu.taranath@gmail.com and https://www.anuta). Additional suggestions and some mini reviews, Include:
