The White Antiracist Ancestry Project

The premise of this project is simple: it will be easier to organize White people for racial justice, if they have powerful examples to learn from and be inspired by.

By lifting up the stories and lessons of White antiracist history, this project is helping to ground committed White antiracists in a rich legacy of antiracist practice. It is providing teachers and parents of White children with resources that will help them raise a White antiracist generation. And it is giving average White Americans the opportunity to imagine new possibilities of how they can show up as White people in this world.

Since the winter of 2021, the project has offered over 40 workshops to dozens of White antiracist organizations, helped to train over a thousand activists, worked with a range of incredible movement elders, and created resources seen by hundreds of thousands of people. You can read more about the resources created so far at the project’s vision statement.
