The nation’s attention is turned to the tragedies of losing Black lives. For people who share affinity with those whose lives have been lost, these experiences can be acutely reminiscent of abuse and harm that has transcended generations. For others, the conversation may be entirely new.
Many are wondering what to do – or where to start.
At Perception, we believe that Black Lives Matter and are committed to supporting the work to address systemic racism and structural oppression. We share insights and strategies from the mind sciences that serve to align interpersonal and institutional behaviors with values of equity.
We invite those who want to be part of the radical transformation of our society to join us.
