As a society, we're often afraid to talk about racism. Leaning into these uncomfortable conversations, however-and the questions they spark-is essential to dismantling systemic oppression and creating lasting change.

It's tempting to believe we're moving beyond racism, especially if your personal experience or the sanitized version of history suggests otherwise. But the harsh reality remains: systemic racism continues to shape our world, affecting healthcare, education, policing, and countless other areas. For people of color, daily life means navigating microaggressions, proving their experiences, and fighting to be heard.
For allies and those on the frontline alike, this listening and understanding is crucial.
Enter Carrie M. Sawyer, whose passion for equity and fair representation inspired her to transition from her corporate career in Diversity to tackle some of society's most pressing challenges.
