Showing Up for Racial Justice organizes white people to build the political will needed to end white supremacy. We do this through political education, direct action, self reflection, and community-building, and by following the example and leadership of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) partners.
An overview of our current work and ways to get involved are embedded below:
Why join SURJ-TC?
Being a part of an anti-racist community is a powerful experience that can help us deepen our commitments to anti-racism, build relationships and connections that sustain us, and resource us for the long-haul work of ending white supremacy.
Becoming a member of SURJ-TC benefits you, our chapter, and our BIPOC-led partner organizations:
- It means you will be accompanied by other white people in your anti-racist work.
- It means that our chapter will expand its collective capacity to take action.
- It means that SURJ-TC has a dedicated group of members ready to activate when our BIPOC partners need allies.
Membership provides clear, yet flexible pathways for each of us to contribute our time, energy, and talents to the work of dismantling white supremacy. We encourage you to choose which steps to take and how quickly based on what fits in your life right now.
