Frederick Douglass Reading July 1, 2023

Frederick Douglass Reading July 1, 2023

On Saturday July 1, 2023 readers will deliver the famous speech "What to the American Slaves is Your Fourth of July."  If you wish to participate email racialunityteam1@gmail.com


While reading Frederick Douglass’ work is a powerful experience for many, it is only one piece of the long-overdue conversations that our communities need to have. We hope that the readings will be a starting point for these difficult dialogues and that they will provide an opportunity for us to engage in deeper conversations that will lead to actions to help build more inclusive and just communities today.

Symposium on Colorism

Frederick Douglass Speech on Independence Day Recited

Frederick Douglass Speech on Independence Day Recited

Project Title: It’s More Than Skin Deep: Skin Color and Its Impact on Children.

The 2020 symposium was an examination of how our collective history as well as societal and parental influence have made an impact on children’s perception of themselves and others based solely on skin color; how that perception affects children’s well-being and eventual role in our changing society.  .

Racism 101: How can YOU get started in anti-racism work?

 Racial Unity Day 2021 will be celebrated center stage at the TEAM Equinox Festival on Saturday 18 September from 4-6 pm on Swasey Parkway as a celebration of the oneness of the human family. The Racial Unity Team works throughout each year on activities and educational programs to express support for diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice in our communities. Our country and our world are in dire need of efforts to promote racial and cultural unity with diversity. We began these efforts in 2015 with a valiant team of volunteers and avid supporters.

This four-part series was brought to you in 2020 by the Racial Unity Team and Robinwood Center. It provided an understanding of racist language and definitions, a basic understanding of what systemic racism is and what it looks like, and how NH fits into this. You can view these videos below.

Racism 101: How can YOU get started in anti-racism work?

Fireside Chat - An open Discussion Minneapolis and beyond

 In light of national events, we used this Fireside Chat to discuss recent events and spend time healing. The goal of the night was to allow our community a sacred space to share thoughts, to perhaps become enlightened by new thoughts, and at best to spark the minds of the community to unite and lift each other up.
