Flipping
the Script: White Privilege and Community Building
Flipping the Script is a monograph designed for people who work in communities to identify and address issues of white privilege, oppression, racism and power as they play out in this work. It is for community builders, grant makers, technical assistance providers and others who are trying to develop more equitable and thoughtful partnerships with community residents and organizations. Written by Maggie Potapchuk, MP Associates; Sally Leiderman, Center for Assessment and Policy Development; and with Donna Bivens, Women’s Theological Center and Barbara Major, St. Thomas Health Clinic, this monograph is offered collectively as a resource for people deeply invested in community building work. An analysis of community building through the lens of white privilege suggests many places in which we might do our work differently. It also questions the most basic premises of this work. Flipping the Script can be downloaded here.

RACE – The Power of an Illusion
Produced by California Newsreel in association with the Independent Television Service (ITVS).
“We hope this series can help clear away the biological underbrush and leave starkly visible the underlying social, economic, and political conditions that disproportionately channel advantages and opportunities to white people. Perhaps then we can shift the conversation from discussing diversity and respecting cultural difference to building a more just and equitable society.”
Larry Adelman

is an
international online network of antiracism organizations and practitioners,
features news that contextualizes present day racism, promotes anti-racism
