The Emerson Program has been steadily working to incorporate an anti-racist approach to all aspects of our work. What began with an effort to have more racially and economically diverse classes of fellows has evolved over the years into what is now a strong programmatic commitment to anti-racism. This commitment is also the foundation for our current and future work to establish a broader anti-oppression framework including other forms of oppression, such as sexism, classism, and homophobia.
