Self-reflection can be an important part of it too, genuinely owning your own biases and stereotypes and working to challenge them. I like the phrase "The first thought that goes through your mind is what you have been conditioned to think; what you think next defines who you are." - we are all raised in a racist, unequal society and there is not a single person who will come out of that unaffected, so learning to hear what that first thought is and critically examine it is really important to practice I think. Image of a person thinking, hand on chin with green question marks behind him to the left. Respect and REW logos to the top left.
For me, anti-racist is an active term. It means I don't just believe in a world without racism, I want to be part of helping us move towards it. That looks different at different times and, over the years, I've come to understand that it's ok to do that within what feels safe for me. Right now, with everything going on in the UK and around the world, anti-racism to me is holding on to hope that progress is possible if we fight for it. - REW logo and Respect logo.
