Reimagining Antiracism To Create Meaningful, Compassionate Change

Are You Ready to Go Beyond the Basics and Tackle the Root Causes of Racism?

Systemic racism isn’t just a historical artifact—it’s a living, pervasive force that shapes workplaces, communities, and lives today. Ignoring it allows inequities to persist, leaving organizations stagnant and communities fractured. If you're looking to move beyond surface-level awareness to create true racial equity, this course is your next step.

In Reimagining Antiracism, you’ll uncover the origins and mechanics of systemic racism, deepen your understanding of racial bias, and develop empathy-driven strategies to advance equity. Through this 90-minute, self-paced program, you’ll gain the tools to build the Beloved Community and make a lasting impact in your workplace and beyond.

What’s at Stake?

The consequences of leaving systemic racism unaddressed are significant:

  • Persistent Inequities: Without action, racial disparities in access, opportunity, and treatment remain unchallenged.

  • Damaged Relationships: Unconscious bias and lack of understanding create barriers to trust and collaboration.

  • Organizational Stagnation: Companies that fail to advance racial equity risk decreased employee morale, retention, and innovation.

  • Missed Opportunities for Change: Your potential as a change agent is diminished when you lack the tools to act effectively.

This moment demands more than awareness—it calls for courage, commitment, and compassionate action.

What You’ll Gain

By the end of this program, you’ll have the knowledge and tools to:

  • Define Critical Concepts: Gain clarity on terms like caste, race, ethnicity, white supremacy, systemic racism, and antiracism.
  • Understand Racism’s Evolution: Explore the historical development of racial hierarchies and the structural forces perpetuating them.
  • Tackle Racial Bias Skillfully: Identify the formation and impact of racial bias in your workplace and personal life and transform it with empathy and understanding.
  • Strategize for Antiracism: Develop practical, empathy-driven steps to advance antiracism in your professional and community roles.
  • Root Your Actions in Scholarship: Draw insights from thought leaders like Isabel Wilkerson (Caste) and Yuval Noah Harari (Sapiens) to ground your understanding and efforts.

Who Should Enroll?

Reimagining Antiracism is designed for individuals and organizations ready to take the next step in advancing racial equity:

  • Professionals: Create more inclusive workplaces.
  • Leaders: Drive meaningful, systemic change.
  • Community Advocates: Dismantle racism in their spheres of influence.
  • Social Impact Practitioners: Deepen understanding and expand tools for equity work.


If you’ve completed foundational training, this course provides the advanced insights and strategies needed to address systemic racism head-on.

The Cost of Inaction

Every day we delay addressing systemic racism, we perpetuate harm and miss opportunities to create equitable, thriving workplaces and communities. Don’t let uncertainty or a lack of tools hold you back from taking meaningful action.

About Breaking Bias

Imagine a world without bias. A world where all human beings can truly be just as they are and unleash their full potential. Take a moment to imagine how you feel in such a world—not what you think about it, or whether you believe it's possible, but how you feel.

This is the proposition that opens the bestselling Breaking Bias. It’s your invitation to embark on a journey that will radically change your experience and show you how you, in turn, can help reshape our world.

Blending ancient Buddhist wisdom with modern scientific evidence, Anu takes us on a deep-time journey to explore human identities and identity-based biases and to recognize that breaking bias is the key to unlocking multiple crises in our world—from racism, sexism, classism, and other -isms to burnout, loneliness, and climate change. Then he offers his signature PRISM toolkit—a science-backed, somatically informed set of contemplative tools—to help us dismantle learned bias within ourselves and in the world around us, moment by moment, with probing questions and writing prompts throughout the book that invite us to put these tools to use right from the start.
