Key actions for cities to consider in addressing racial inequities

• 探索人口历史, 包括种族历史, and current demographics of the community.
• Normalize the topic of race through hosting facilitated conversations among city staff, 选出的领导人, 在社区中(e.g. book or film and discussion events).
• Identify local BIPOC partners/community groups to engage in conversation about their experiences in the community.
• Collect and analyze data on city services by race (e.g. geographic data on where park improvements have been made or where trees have been planted by the city).
• Organize training for staff and elected officials that focuses on developing shared terminology and concepts of race and race equity (e.g. 内隐和外显偏见).

The League has compiled a variety of resources to support cities in their work of advancing racial equity. They can be used to help the work of getting comfortable talking about race and examining programs and policies with an equity lens. Cities have used the following materials as foundations for dialogue among city staff and in the community.

• 种族:幻觉的力量 (PBS series looking at the history of racism in the U.S., questions of whether race is biology or a social construct, and housing policy) – for film and discussion groups.
• Zootopia – for film and discussion groups about diversity and inclusion.
• White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism by Robin DiAngelo – for employee book club discussions.
• 讲述真相的好时机 (essays by Minnesotan authors who identify as people of color) – for discussion groups.
• Implicit Bias: Peanut Butter, Jelly and Racism (PBS video) – for employee and elected official training sessions.
