Christine Headshot

“When I really understood that ‘race’ is a fictional concept invented by white people to protect their power as the dominant culture, I was enraged–and shocked at what I didn’t know I didn’t know. As a white person who now sees how I benefit daily from white privilege, I am thrilled to be helping to build RacEquity360.”
