Working to Extend Anti-Racist Education

For Day 3 of the WE ARE ACTIVISTS Summer Camp, we talked explicitly about race and racism.

We read “Sit-In: How Four Friends Stood Up by Sitting Down” by @andreapinkney1 and used puppets to make the abstract concepts much more concrete for our young campers. Campers also talked about ways we can use our #POWER to create change! In Durham, Dr.Griffin, a participant in the Greensboro Sit-In movement, visited our campers and shared his stories about growing up and challenging racist policies. That’s his voice in the reel. Dr. Griffin is the grandad of longtime camp counselor Ms. Jasmyn. What a powerful experience for our ACTIVISTS! In Greensboro, our young activists visited the @icrcmgso. #weareACTIVISTS2026 #antiracismsummercamp #raceconscious #consciouskids socialjusticesummer
