Building A Beloved Community: A Tapestry of Black and Jewish Stories

Black and Jewish

Stories of Solidarity

"The Includers" is not just a platform; it's a movement fueled by the conviction that true progress is achieved when allies play an integral role in dismantling systemic barriers. We understand that fostering a culturally savvy approach to anti-racism requires collaboration, education, and collective action. Our community serves as a hub for individuals committed to breaking down silos, embracing cultural diversity, and actively participating in the fight against racism. ​ At "The Includers: Culturally Savvy Anti-Racists," we recognize that inclusive allyship is a key ingredient in the DEI equation. Our platform is designed to provide allies with the knowledge, tools, and resources needed to actively contribute to the dismantling of systemic inequalities. We believe that cultural savviness is essential in the journey towards creating a truly inclusive society. ​ Join us in this transformative endeavor as we strive to go beyond passive support and encourage allies to actively engage, learn, and stand in solidarity with our diverse communities. "The Includers" is a space where cultural understanding meets advocacy, where allies play a vital role in shaping a more equitable and inclusive world. Together, we break barriers, challenge norms, and stand united as "The Includers: Culturally Savvy Anti-Racists."
