When comparing anti-racism resources that exist today I am thankful I invested in Monique's course. As I engage in this work I find the concept relatively easy to grasp, but struggle with the lack of actionable steps. Additionally I struggle with the fact that the responsibility of providing actionable steps does not fall on the educator. I found Monique's course the perfect balance of explanation and recommendation on how I can do the work to identify the actions I will take to consistently engage in anti-racism. Thank you Monique!

This was such a worthwhile and educational class, as well as extremely self-reflective. Take this class !

Loved Monique's matter of fact and direct teaching style. This course was a great, as the title says, crash course in Anti racism and I cannot wait to take more courses from Monique. Thank You!

The multifaceted aspects of the information Monique Melton shared resonated with me in a way that supports me in centering Black liberation and decentering my whiteness. From every class, there are so many take aways and opportunities to learn and implement.

Monique gives actionable steps to stop tokenizing my black friends and how to build more meaningful relationships with them. I took away multiple insights on how white supremacy plays out in my relationships with Black people. Because I took this class, I feel better equipped to stay committed to anti-racism.

This was a wonderful, thoughtful space to sit and be real with how to move within friendships with Black folks as a white woman by acknowledging the ongoing work I need to be doing and upholding with decentering, building trust, and repair. Thank you Monique.

This class is truly a must take (as literally any/every Monique Melton class is). I learned quite a bit about the basis of white fear, though all these fears are unfounded. It is always best to sit with your discomfort and figure out what/why it is bothering you before you react. Thank you again for another incredible learning experience.

I just finished watching the live and this panel was AMAZING! Actually amazing doesn’t even begin to describe it. I could listen to all the guest speakers for days and it still wouldn’t be enough. All the learning, information and personal stories has really given me so much to think inwardly about and to propel me to keep doing the work on the daily. I’m so thankful I was able to watch and listen to such a group of beautiful souls. I really hope there’s a round 2 because I just couldn’t get enough. Thank you Moe for this! Pass the collection plate!
