Being aware of privilege, especially #whiteprivilege, and being able to talk about it are the first steps towards dismantling systemic racism and oppression. Check out the article from Peggy McIntosh here: https://t.co/dR0rh9IADr #GoForwardFriday #DoTheWork

Equity. Equality. Justice. You've probably been hearing these words a lot lately, but do you understand the differences between them? If we want a just society, we must first remove the systemic, racial barriers that exist within it. #GoForwardFriday #RacialJustice

We don't just teach #rugby skills, but also the skills to help young people be successful in life! Our YDMs are teachers but also role models and most importantly, a positive influence in the life of each young person in our programs. 😊 #GoForwardFriday #YouthDevelopment
