CWAers Attend Virtual Training on Building An Anti-Racist Union

In response to the national uprisings following the murder of George Floyd, the CWA Executive Board committed to create dedicated spaces for open dialogue on race for our members and leaders. The discussions will help determine outcomes and clear steps the union must take to fight racism in the union, within the industries we represent, and the community-at-large.

In July, as part of those efforts, members of CWA's National Executive Board Diversity Committee, National Civil Rights & Equity Committee, and the National Women's Committee attended CWA's anti-racism training. The training, "Building An Anti-Racist Union," is part of a series of virtual training sessions on recognizing implicit bias, how to actively dismantle racist systems, ideas, and practices, and how to form local human rights committees.
