Salon Discussion: Have We Made Progress on Racism in the US?
7:00 pm — 8:00 pm
Virtual on Zoom
In the past few years since George Floyd was murdered, renewed interest in racism in the United States has called for societal change. ![](https://ncjwcns.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2022/10/Salon2-300x300.png)
During the Salon, we’ll discuss our views on several topics:
- Have we moved the needle to reduce racism in the U.S. since May 2020? How do we define “success” in reducing racism?
- Have policies and practices in government and private industry changed opinions or has the status of Black and Brown people improved?
- What has changed in your life? Do you read more about anti-racism? Are you practicing more anti-racist behaviors? Reading more about the topic?
- What else needs to happen to achieve racial equity in the U.S. and how can we as individuals and as NCJW be involved in making change?
