The Federal Initiative to Govern for Racial Equity (FIRE) is thrilled to announce the webinar “Racial Equity: Advancing Change from the Inside Out in the Federal Government,” which is scheduled to occur August 17, 2023 from 1:00 - 2:00 pm ET. 

As the nation reflects and commemorates the 1963 March on Washington, Race Forward is offering a public webinar for a general audience. It will explore efforts to advance racial equity via federal programs. Discussants will explain how sustained strategies inside and outside public institutions are creating productive tension and accountability. Panelists will focus on what is possible when federal government leaders commit to identifying and removing systemic barriers, and embracing the charge of advancing racial equity.

In 1963, citizen leaders responded to the call to action. Sixty years later, the federal government is taking action as well, and it is demonstrating how a racial equity agenda executed through intentional planning and consistent implementation can strengthen our democracy while yielding benefits for all. 

Learn more on August 17.  General registration is now open.
