There are a plethora of resources available that provide research, guidance, advocacy, and community for those seeking to contribute to ending racism and other forms of oppression. This is not a comprehensive list. My intent is to provide links to resources that may help you take the next step toward finding your own unique anti-racist voice, beginning with the resources that we provide directly.

The White Privilege Conference, WPC is the premier conference on racism and white privilege, and is open to everyone.

It also includes a parallel student conference, which merges with WPC on the final day. This provides a rich environment where participants are challenged, encouraged, supported, and pushed toward action beyond the conference.

National Conference on Race and Ethnicity in American Higher Education (NCORE) is the leading conference on issues of race and ethnicity for college and university educators and students.
