We invite you to join us for the National Day of Racial Healing: Towards Equity and Racial Justice in Health

Join the DC Department of Health for a Creative Coffeehouse event grounding and honoring the National Day of Racial Healing. This day is a time for us to reflect on our shared values, history, and culture. Let’s work together to create the canvas for #HowWeHeal from the effects of racism. It's an opportunity to unite, share stories, and inspire collective action to build common ground for a more just and equitable world.

The National Day of Racial Healing calls on colleges and universities across the country to engage in activities, events, or strategies that promote healing and foster engagement around the issues of racism, bias, inequity, and injustice in our society. Students, faculty, staff and community members will come together to discuss how to create a more just and equitable world.

We will engage in a roundtable discussion with black low-wage women workers from various industries including fast food, food processing, manufactory and warehouse.

Day of Racial Healing Workshop: "We Are the Builders"

Inspired by Deepa Iyer's ecological framework in "We Are the Builders," this workshop is an opportunity to collectively engage in reflection, dialogue, and action for racial healing and equity. Through guided exercises, group discussions, and personal storytelling, participants will explore their unique roles in the movement for social justice—whether as weavers, frontline responders, storytellers, or other archetypes identified by Iyer.

This interactive session will emphasize the importance of building interconnected and resilient communities that center healing and transformation. Together, we will deepen our understanding of systemic inequities, honor the diverse histories and experiences of racialized communities, and cultivate tools for bridging divides and fostering solidarity. We will explore immediate opportunities to bring about racial healing on the Kennesaw State University campus and in the Northwest Metropolitan Atlanta area.
