The 21-Day Racial Equity Challenge was created by Dr. Eddie Moore Jr.(#BlackMind) and co-developed with Debby Irving, and Dr. Marguerite Penick (#DiverseSolutions). The plan has been adopted by organizations, associations, and corporations in the nation and world. Dr. Moore is the Director of The Privilege Institute in Green Bay WI. He created the Challenge to not only help people better understand issues surrounding equity, inclusion, privilege, leadership and supremacy, but also to do so in a way that would build a habit of learning by stretching it over 21 days. NAHOF is pleased to be offering this 21-Day Challenge in partnership with Dr. Moore. As participants engage in the various activities over the next 21 days, they are encouraged to be sure to tag, comment, and follow 21-Day Racial Equity Habit Building Challenge | Facebook.

The National Abolition Hall of Fame and (NAHOF) is chartered by the Board of Regents, New York State Education Department. NAHOF honors antislavery abolitionists, their work to end slavery, and the legacy of that struggle, and strives to complete the second, and ongoing abolition – the moral conviction to end racism. NAHOF is located in historic Peterboro NY in the two-hundred-year-old building in which abolitionists held the inaugural meeting of the New York State Antislavery Society in 1835. The Gerrit Smith Estate National Historic Landmark is an Underground Railroad site just down the street.
