Praise for "Becoming an Anti-Racist Leader"

The presenters were both excellent and the course material was helpful and easy to access. I especially appreciated the nonjudgmental, inclusive tone of the speakers.

I have greater understanding of a complex problem and have begun to see what I had a feeling was missing.

This is the best structured and most informative anti-racism training I’ve done.
