Listen, learn and be an ally….community foundations and nonprofit organizations will play a key role in our communities as systemic racism is addressed. We need to also look internally at how our organizations can be more inclusive and bring about the change that is necessary for equality for all. What are some resources that your organization are using to begin these conversations?
