RACIAL JUSTICEHUB
OURMISSION
To create a global community of teen changemakers to encourage, inspire, and act on racial justice worldwide.
What we do
The Racial Justice Hub is working to make change happen, through efforts to raise awareness, educate, and work together on projects. This Hub is open to teens anywhere committed to this agenda who want to be inspired by other teens working in a similar manner on constructive actions.
A resource for those looking to learn more and dive deeper into anti-racism efforts.
We all unconsciously have implicit biases and it’s our duty to understand it and know how to navigate those situations.
View our art challenge that was open to all art bringing light to racial justice through music, poetry and digital art.
