White Supremacy in the Global Context Panel Discussion.
October 2021
Center For Healing and Liberation facilitated this panel discussion with racial justice leaders Resmaa Menakem, Nova Reid, Leticia Nieto, Robin DiAngelo, Edwin Cleophas. While the institutionalization of white supremacy originated in the U.S., it now circulates globally. The Black Lives Matter movement also originated in the U.S. but galvanized antiracism movements worldwide. This panel addressed the similarities and the differences across cultures and countries, the challenges and opportunities of this particular moment, and how we might move forward at the local and global levels. Our panel of international racial justice leaders offered a deep and multifaceted reflection on where we were at that time and how we can advance healing and cultural transformation.
