We intentionally say “Call-IN” instead of “Call-OUT” because these moments, though unfortunate, become a real-time learning opportunity to respectfully explore the harmful impact of racism, ways it shows up in our daily living with an opportunity to pivot toward deeper understanding and healing through restorative approaches. These moments are never easy for all involved but in the words of James Baldwin, “Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced."
