Our people

Building a racism-free world through our community

“We are a COALITION of Dedicated People Committed to Eradicating Racism and spreading anti-racism throughout our communities, countries and the world. “

- DONZEL A. LEGGETT

OUR FIVE CORE VALUES

We are a GLOBAL organization. The initial focus is on the United States, as the stability of the US is critical to the world, and racial disharmony in the US is one of the most destabilizing issues long term for the country and world. However, we will steadily work to improve our relevance and content globally as all countries have some aspect of racism, classism and hate that must be addressed. We will need international volunteers to assist with this important mission.

All RACES, ETHNICITIES and NATIONALITIES are welcome to join ARCC.

All GENDERS and / or SEXUAL ORIENTATIONS and IDENTITIES are welcome to join ARCC.

All POLITICAL VIEWS are welcome to join ARCC as long as policy does not overtake our core values and purpose to be anti-racist. In other words, ARCC MEMBERS VIEW ALL POLICY THROUGH THE LENS OF ANTI-RACISM.

ALL RELIGIONS are welcome to join ARCC as long as religion does not overtake our core values and purpose to be anti-racist. In other words, ARCC MEMBERS VIEW RELIGION THROUGH THE LENS OF ANTI-RACISM.

Join our coalition

I am joining the Anti-Racism Commitment Coalition, or ARCC, and therefore, commit to the following:

Commit to voting against and publicly challenging all current public officials and prospective candidates who support racism and hate (directly or indirectly) and / or remain silent, refuse to stand against it and do not actively support Anti-racism, and convince those in your network to do the same.

Commit to transforming yourself and all in your network to become anti-racist,  and  hold yourself and those in your network accountable to do so.

Commit to continuously educating yourself about the true history of the United States and its people, not the Eurocentric version. Acknowledge that the United States has passed down its heritage in the form of structural and institutional racism. Work to ensure that the real history is finally reflected in our schools, books, and curriculum. Fight to have historical legends like Marsha P. Johnson and Fredrick Douglass recognized for their contributions.

Commit to always speaking out about racism and taking action to eradicate it, no matter the audience.

Commit to never allowing racist “dog whistles” and racially charged code words, like thug, rioters, low-income people, urban people, migrants, immigrants, etc., to go unchallenged, and instead call them what they are: racist terms. Failing to call out microaggressions perpetuates the spread of racism everywhere.

Commit to always voting and using your vote for candidates who stand for anti-racism, and use it against those who back racist policies and remain silent or take no action to eradicate racism. Use your influence and vote to have racist statues, buildings and street names, and other honorariums removed.

Commit to using your money as a tool to promote anti-racism by supporting businesses that publicly take action to drive anti-racism, and use your money as a weapon against those who remain silent on issues of race or support racism and hate, by boycotting their businesses.

And Commit to Supporting ARCC publicly by displaying your picture and commitment statement on the coalition page to provide support and inspiration to the next prospective ARCC member.
