Anti Police Terrorism Project (APTP) - https://www.antipoliceterrorproject.org/

The Anti Police-Terror Project is a Black-led, multi-racial, intergenerational coalition that seeks to build a replicable and sustainable model to eradicate police terror in communities of color. We support families surviving police terror in their fight for justice, documenting police abuses and connecting impacted families and community members with resources, legal referrals, and opportunities for healing.

Working on Being Effective White Antiracist Allies

Are you actively, or do you want to be, working against racism as it is manifested in interpersonal interactions and institutional policies and practices?

Are you overwhelmed with the magnitude of this work?

Are you wanting to learn from your mistakes and continue to face your own racism?

Would you like to have a safe and growthful space to connect to other White people who are working on these issues?

Constructive White Conversations (CWC) - https://www.constructivewhiteconversations.org/

Constructive White Conversations is a gathering in which those who identify as white speak freely and openly about race, racism, oppression, isolation, and all related issues.

 

Constructive White Conversations is a place for white people who want to understand and dismantle racism, build and maintain white anti-racist community, and explore the nature of white identity.


Cross Cultural Solidarity - https://crossculturalsolidarity.com/

CrossCulturalSolidarity.com aims to become a one-stop site for people to plug into the wide universe of racial justice history. As of August 2022, there are resources on over 150 racial justice history topics… and a fundraising campaign has been launched to build hundreds more over the next few years.

Cross Cultural Solidarity is especially committed to strengthening bonds of multiracial solidarity. Achieving racial equity and building a strong, robust democracy requires us all to unite, as Black, Brown, and White. Our ability to work together and stand up for each other is strengthened when we have access to inspiring examples of solidarity: thus, the first two categories on the main landing page are Black/Brown Solidarity and White Antiracism.

A Great Site - and its creator Lynn - a wonderful Friend and Ally (gm)!

As  has been our tradition for decades, we dive into the difficult concepts of privilege and oppression around race, gender, sexuality, class, disability, etc. Through the exploration of their role in all systems (banking, health care, justice, education, etc.), we offer solutions and team building strategies to work towards a more equitable world. We empower and equip individuals to work for equity and justice through self and social transformations.

Showing Up for Racial Justice (SURJ) - https://surj.org/

Showing Up for Racial Justice (SURJ) is a national organization that brings hundreds of thousands of white people into fights for racial and economic justice.

For too long, the Right has hoarded wealth and power by using strategic racism to convince white people that we have more in common with billionaires and corporate elites than with the people of color in our communities. At SURJ, we bring our folks in by offering a better alternative: a just, vibrant future where people of all races work together to win what we need. We do this work by building people power in multi-racial communities across our network — through campaigns, 200 chapters across the country, and deep local organizing projects.

NOTE:  AWARE-LA - listed above in part is the Los Angeles Chapter of SURJ.   AWARE-LA is undoubtedly the strongest chapter of SURJ - which is the largest/strongest white Anti-Racism Group in the U.S.   AWARE-LA - https://www.awarela.org/ - has an incredible website - listing a lot of valuable resources

White Men for Racial Justice (WMRJ) - https://www.wmrj.org/

Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color often say they are tired of explaining to White people how race shows up in our everyday lives. Some describe it as painful to listen to White people suddenly 'discover' truths hidden in plain sight. This is especially true in their experience with White men, who hold disproportionate power, and are least present and skillful in 'the work.'

WMRJ is a response to explicit requests to 'go get our people.'
