Leadership and Race Synthesis (DRAFT) External website [view] [more info]

This is a working draft of the Leadership and Race synthesis. The final publication will be published later this year. Introduction: We live in a multi-racial world where the ability to accumulate wealth, find a job, attend a good school, or live in a healthy neighborhood is largely determined by race. This publication explores the ways in which our current thinking about leadership may actually be contributing to these growing disparities. We believe that we need to change our leadership development thinking and approaches in order to become part of the solution to significant racial inequalities.

Flipping the Script: White Privilege and Community Building [more info]

The goals of this monograph are to shine a bright light on these issues, to suggest new ways of thinking and acting, to share solutions where there are some, and to raise questions that challenge all of us doing this work. By doing so, we hope it will help those involved in improving communities to work in more equitable and thoughtful partnerships with community residents and other stakeholders, with special attention to issues of privilege, oppression, racism, and power as they play out in this work.
