Equity For All (Formerly known as Stand Against Racism)
Every April, YWCA agencies across the nation host public events that engage in open and honest dialogue that confront stereotypes and bias as a community. The goal of the annual event is to unite our community in a bold demonstration that delivers a clear message: We are on a mission to eliminate racism.
Каждый смелый разговор дает возможность расширить кругозор, изучить новые инструменты и пообщаться с разнообразным сообществом граждан, страстно желающих искоренить расизм в нашем сообществе.

Racial Justice Challenge
The Equity Challenge was originally developed by Dr. Eddie Moore Jr. (#BlackMind) and co-developed with Debby Irving and Dr. Marguerite Penick (#DiverseSolutions). The plan has been adopted by organizations, associations, and corporations all over the world. Dr. Moore is director of the Privilege Institute in Green Bay, WI., and created the Challenge to not only help people better understand issues surrounding equity, inclusion, privilege, leadership, and supremacy, but also to do so in a way that would build a habit of learning by stretching it a number of days.
Earlier this year, YWCA USA announced the launch of YWCA Racial Justice Challenge.
The Racial Justice Challenge is the action component for the Until Justice Just Is campaign, which will begin the month of сентябрь (locally) to raise awareness of systemic racism and how each of us can take action to advance justice.
Previously known as the Stand Against Racism Challenge or 21-Day Racial Equity and Social Justice Challenge, the YWCA Racial Justice, the YWCA Racial Justice Challenge was developed by YWCA Greater Cleveland in 2019. YWCA USA is excited to be partnering again with YWCAs across the country to offer this unique virtual learning community to participants across the country.
The YWCA Racial Justice Challenge is designed to create dedicated time and space to build more effective social justice habits, particularly those dealing with issues of race, power, privilege, and leadership. The Challenge works to foster personal reflection, encourage social responsibility, and motivate participants to identify and act on ways to dismantle racism and other forms of discrimination.
For two weeks, daily challenge activities (reading an article, listening to a podcast, reflecting on personal experience, etc.) are distributed via email and the website, allowing participants to connect with one another, discover how racial and social injustice impact our community, and identify ways to dismantle racism and other forms of discrimination. Daily activities are not posted on the weekends.
To continue the conversation and explore other topics, consider joining our Группа Facebook по вопросам расовой и социальной справедливости.

MLK Day is also an important day to acknowledge the work of Coretta Scott King, Dr. King’s wife. As shared by Bernice King, Dr. King’s daughter, “As you honor my father today, please honor my mother, as well. She was the architect of the King Legacy and founder of The King Center, which was founded less than three months after Daddy died. Without Coretta Scott King, there would be no MLK Day.”
В любимом сообществе мы чествуем Коретту Скотт Кинг и доктора Мартина Лютера Кинга-младшего.

Women’s March & Women’s History Month
Каждый март отмечается празднование женской истории. Когда мы празднуем прогресс женщин, мы не можем забывать, что ни одна женщина не поднимается вверх, пока не поднимутся все женщины. И история чернокожих, и женская история все еще пишутся в нашем сообществе, и наши усилия по развитию каждой истории зависят друг от друга для взаимного успеха.
YWCA Spokane, along with YWCA agencies across the nation, proudly support the annual Women’s March. The Women’s March is an opportunity for us to unite as a community and express our solidarity and commitment to the protection of the rights of all women. The Women’s March is a women-led movement bringing together people of all genders, ages, races, cultures, political affiliations, disabilities, and backgrounds to affirm our shared humanity and to stand in solidarity for social justice, racial equity, and women’s rights. Local marches take place in cities all around the nation and world.
Please consider joining YWCA Spokane as we gather and march together with other local agencies, individuals, and businesses for peace, justice, freedom, and dignity for all. Please follow us on social media to receive updates about the next Women’s March. Through unification and inclusion, we will light a fire of change. In solidarity, we will make a difference! Hear our voice!
Лагерь трансформаций
It is through our valued partnership with Jaime Stacy and SWAG that we are able to bring Transformations Camp back to the Spokane community after a two year pause due to COVID. In addition to championing this camp, Jaime has done an incredible job of lifting up and supporting young people in our community through her work at SWAG and through Garry and Shaw Middle Schools and at Rogers High School.
This week long, empowerment camp, facilitated by Jaime Stacey, centers the experience of 11-16 year olds who identify as young women of color. We cannot express enough how amazing Jaime is as a facilitator and leader in Spokane. It has been inspiring to watch her light up young people with sincere passion, care, joy, and love.

Спокан ПРАЙД
Каждый год (обычно в июне) сообщество Спокана собирается вместе, чтобы отпраздновать освобождение ЛГБТК + в течение национального месяца PRIDE. PRIDE - это ежегодный праздник в честь храбрых людей, которые сопротивлялись полицейским рейдам в 1969 году в отеле Stonewall Inn в Нью-Йорке. Наша команда в YWCA Spokane рада участвовать в параде и праздновании каждый год, а также в ежегодной ярмарке ресурсов.
In 2022, YWCA Spokane was proud to participate in the Pride Parade & Festival, brought back by Spokane Pride!
