Building Community

One Relationship at a Time

Welcome to the Alamance Racial Equity Alliance newsletter! As we walk alongside one another in 2025, it is so very important that time is spent building relationships. A key focus of our work this year will be just that: getting to know one another and deepening those connections. We are a community of anti-racist people that encourages the transformation of thought through collective learning, meaningful relationships, and community events.

Our purpose is to end racism.

We believe in the power of community, and we know that together, we can achieve incredible things. Your monthly donation allows us to build a stronger future for our community by providing critical funding for community events and continued education. Become a sustaining member and be a part of something truly special. Your ongoing support is the heart of our work.

Can you spare $5.00 a month to help deepen the impact of the work?

A.R.E.A. Happenings

To advance racial equity, there is work for white people and people of color to do separately and together. Caucuses provide spaces for people to work within their own racial/ethnic groups. For white people, a caucus provides time and space to work explicitly and intentionally on understanding white culture and white privilege and to increase one’s critical analysis around these concepts. A white caucus also puts the onus on white people to teach each other about these ideas, rather than placing a burden on people of color to teach them. For people of color, a caucus is a place to work with peers to address the impact of racism, to interrupt experiences of internalized racism, and to create a space for healing and working for individual and collective liberation.

Meeting location: You will be contacted by a caucus facilitator with location details after submitting your registration.
