We take a Stand Against Racism every day by raising awareness about the impact of institutional and structural racism and by building community among those who work for racial justice.
This year, the annual Stand Against Racism campaign will take place April 28 – May 1, 2022. We invite YWCA Local Associations, allied groups, and individuals to focus their events and organizing on the myriad of racial justice issues that impact the quality of life for communities of color. Most importantly, we invite you to join us by rallying to make change for communities of color and telling the world We Can’t Wait: Equity and Justice Now!
Our collective efforts can root out injustice, transform institutions, and create a world that sees women, girls, and people of color the way we do: Equal. Powerful. Unstoppable.
The deep-seated systemic racism and inequities that disadvantage communities of color are still woven into the fabric of our institutions today—from civic engagement to economic opportunity and security, from education to health care, and even the way people of color are portrayed in the media. We must work collectively to root out inequity in our communities and in the institutions that compose our society, and demand justice and equity.
At YWCA, we are doing the work of justice everyday – through our advocacy, our leadership, and our work in communities. Our collective advocacy is only made powerful when you add your voice to the chorus and call on Congress and the Administration to take action on the three key issues: voting rights, declaring racism a public health crisis, and equitable access to abortion.
Stand Against Racism provides the opportunity for communities across the United States to find an issue or cause that inspires them to take a #StandAgainstRacism and to unite their voices to educate, advocate, and promote racial justice.
