Tackling institutional racism in the charity sector.
#CharitySoWhite sparked a conversation on the many ways in which racism operates within the charity sector. It was a conversation rooted in the experiences of people of colour working in the charity sector. We are a POC led campaign group seeking to tackle institutional racism in the charity sector.
This is a conversation about power and privilege. It is a conversation about how the structures and cultures within our sector reinforce inequality in our sector.
We don’t want to burn the sector down, we want to make it better.

As a group, having each faced the force of white supremacy in the charity sector, we felt passionate about driving systemic change. At the time, this looked like commenting on every racist incident and coddling every leader over coffee. This was not sustainable. We burnt out.
