Taking Action Against Racism Media Task Force 

The Taking Action Against Racism Media Task Force is working on a creative endeavor and welcomes your submissions. The project goal is to create a webpage to provide educators, community leaders, diversity trainers, and all who seek to take action against racism through education a resource of high-quality, engaging media clips, with accompanying discussion questions, activities, and teaching tools.

Clips are being organized by theme: overt racism, micro-aggressions, internalized racism, white privilege, how is racism learned, mixed isms. These categories will expand as media examples are collected. Clips also are categorized by the intended audience( e.g., K-12, college, business, etc) and a FAQ video is planned with national experts in the field of multiculturalism recommending how to do our best work in difficult dialogues. 

If you would like to give psychology away , want to work with some fun colleagues and have meaningful online and monthly phone conferences on the topic of how we can take action against racism, consider joining us.
