The Racial Equity Support Line is a service led and staffed by people with lived experience of racism. We offer support to those who are feeling the emotional impacts of racist violence and microaggressions, as well as the emotional impacts of immigration struggles and other cross-cultural issues.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, we live in a culture where racist acts happen often. From workplaces to housing to healthcare, we know that our communities aren\u2019t getting the same kind of treatment as others.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Whether in small acts, or violent ones, racial bias can have serious emotional impacts. Racism changes how we see the world around us. It\u2019s stressful to worry about how people see us as different or dangerous. It\u2019s exhausting to notice the ways that people treat us as less-than, day in and day out. It\u2019s heartbreaking to turn on the news and learn about more violence against people who look like us.<\/p>\n
