The conversation around racism has increased dramatically over the past several years. However, people often use vocabulary around racial injustice differently and with different understandings of what words mean, e.g., privilege, equity vs. equality, Critical Race Theory, etc. For us to have open, constructive conversations that minimize misunderstandings, it’s important for us to have a common language to facilitate the clear communication of our thoughts and beliefs. Racial Equity Tools provides a helpful online glossary.
