ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï has made a bold commitment to antiracism but does everyone know what exactly that means? How is it different from diversity, equity, and inclusion? To answer this question we invited Dr. Shaun Harper, founder of the newly formed Liberal Arts Colleges Racial Equity Leadership Alliance, or LACRELA, of which CC is a member.
