The free 21-day Racial Justice Challenge is back at YWCA Cortland! Beginning on March 31, 2025, the YWCA Racial Justice Challenge is the action component of the Until Justice Just Is<\/em> campaign<\/a>,<\/span> which runs throughout April to raise awareness of systemic racism and how each of us can take action to advance justice.<\/span><\/p>\n

Previously known as the Stand Against Racism Challenge or 21-Day Racial Equity and Social Justice Challenge, the YWCA Racial Justice Challenge was developed by YWCA Greater Cleveland in 2019. YWCA Cortland is excited to be partnering again with YWCA USA and YWCAs across the country to offer this unique virtual learning community to participants in our community.<\/span><\/p>\n

The YWCA Racial Justice Challenge is designed to create dedicated time and space to build more effective social justice habits, particularly those dealing with issues of race, power, privilege, and leadership. The Challenge fosters personal reflection, encourages social responsibility, and motivates participants to identify and act on ways to dismantle racism and other forms of discrimination.<\/span><\/p>\n

For four weeks, daily challenge activities (reading an article, listening to a podcast, reflecting on personal experience, etc.) are posted in the Challenge app and website. These activities allow participants to connect with one another, discover how racial and social injustice impacts our communities, and identify ways to dismantle racism and other forms of discrimination. Each week covers a different topic related to equity and social justice. Daily activities are not posted on the weekends.<\/span><\/p>\n

YWCA USA has a long and proud history of advancing justice within and outside the organization, from modeling a more diverse leadership representation to striving for fair housing where all people can live harmoniously in the same neighborhoods. YWCA Cortland is proud to continue to build on our momentum for advancing justice with YWCA USA, and the YWCA Racial Justice Challenge is a critical component in realizing this vision.<\/span><\/p>\n
