fists_2The Solidarity Institute has partnered with Facebook.com, Jeb Middlebrook, and AntiRacist 15 to begin the Organizing Network for Widespread Anti-Racist Development (ONWARD).

ONWARD is a national project designed to lend free long-term support and consulting to people and groups interested in starting or growing anti-racist alliances between people of color organizations and white organizations to challenge individual and institutional racism on the local level, and to connect them to a national movement.
