In June 2020, Faith in Action launched a White Faith Leader Declaration. The declaration aimed to lead anti-racism formation among white congregants; mobilize white people to support organizing and policy change goals led by Black, Asian/Pacific Islander, Latinx, Indigenous and Middle Eastern people; and reject any public narrative that would seek to use racism, white supremacy, and anti-Blackness to divide us. In follow up to the declaration, Faith in Action launched a series of white faith leader formation trainings. You can watch them all here.
