Discrimination is action based on prejudice.

It is accepted that each member of the community, formally trained or not, officially sanctioned by a religious organization or stepping up as a rogue sage, has something of value to offer the whole.

This claim rests on a definition of racism as conscious intolerance; a racist is someone who presumably cannot tolerate even the sight of a person of color.

There is an underlying joy and peace that can be known and that doesn’t end. When you can practice being yourself and going beyond a limiting story, you create the conditions for transformation and begin walking a path of freedom.

Conceptualizing myself on an active continuum changes the question from whether I am or am not racist to a much more constructive question: Am I actively seeking to interrupt racism in this context? And perhaps even more importantly, how do I know?

The practice of being judgment-free builds our capacity to fully accept ourselves as human.

Naming who has access and who doesn’t guides our efforts in challenging injustice.
