In the spirit of uniting our community to strengthen families, USES is excited to merge two former initiatives (The Harriet Tubman Forum on Race and Change Maker Dinners) into The Harriet Tubman Change Maker Series. This year, the series will consist of virtual workshops, panel discussions, change maker events, and trainings centered on creating a more just, equal, and anti-racist community.
As we have seen this year, turmoil in cities across the country and right here in Boston have sparked important conversations about racism, racial inequality and deep divisions that exist in our society. The products of institutionalized racism—police brutality, mass incarceration, gentrification, housing, separate and unequal schools, and an ever-growing wealth gap between black and white Americans—cause pain and frustration for many in our city, the South End/Lower Roxbury neighborhood, and the Greater Boston community. Discordant views about race fuel passionate debates in our workplaces, community, and public spaces.
As we experience sobering public health disparities, social and racial injustice, and political unrest in our nation, USES remains committed to supporting children and families as it has for more than a century. With a mission to harness the power of our diverse community to disrupt the cycle of poverty, we understand the painful link between systemic oppression, racism, and persistent generational poverty. The children and families who rely on USES understand it too. Please join us this year as we do the work we all need to do to create a just, equal, and anti-racist society.
