CMC will be having our annual Anti-Racism Week February 21st-25th, 2022. Throughout the week there will be fun activities, open debates, creative arts competition, and a family night. All in the efforts to help people better understand racism from different points of views, and also learn how to respond to racist incidents and tackle discrimination in our communities.

Social Media Blast:
Throughout the week we invite you to hop on Facebook live or post a video sharing your experience with racism in the workplace. Each day is a different sector. Monday: Healthcare, Tuesday: Trades, Wednesday: Education, Thursday: Service & Hospitality, Friday: Business & Finance
If you work in any of these sectors, or simply want to share your experience with racism in the workplace we’d love to hear from you.

 

Creative Arts Competition:

Family Night:
On Feb 25th @ 7pm there will be a family night filled with fun activities for everyone. There will be a quickfire debate on the topic “Marrying Outside Of Your Race”, an open forum discussion on the topic ” Am I Racist”, and a special community guests and keynotes speakers will also be weighing in on the subject. Everyone is welcomed.

 

 

 

This is a great opportunity for minorities and underrepresented communities to celebrate and learn about our diverse cultures, reflect on biases and stand together against racism.

We put together a video of some of the entries that you summited. Wow, we have such great talent in our midst. Awesome Job everyone!
