We are leaders in the movement to Undo Racism
So we organize and develop more leaders.
We stand on the shoulders of generations who served before us as we bring people from all walks of life into a network of anti-racist community organizers.
We’ve been organizing in community to address structural racism and power for over 40 years. Before it was popular. Before it was profitable.
We’ve heard many times from people that the Undoing Racism workshop is the Gold Standard when it comes to supporting people to understand how racism dehumanizes all of us, and how it can be undone.

OUR Black History
Our movement is, and has always been, powerful and leaderful. We know that our textbooks could be filled cover to cover with the names and stories of those who contributed to the movement for racial justice in the United States. In The People’s Institute for Survival and Beyond’s more than 40 years of anti-racist organizing, we’ve been honored to grow through the wisdom and example of Black organizers in our collective. This Black History Month, we are proud to begin sharing stories of Our Black History — including people and moments in our history that make us who we are. And we won’t stop at the end of February — we celebrate Black History and our history all year long.

The legacy of white violence is insidious to our country, north and south. Our anti-racist organizing principles invite us to learn from history and undo racism. Learning from history requires us to unearth painful, important stories.
