OKAY, #
fedimins! I got some good news.
There's an upcoming course with the Anti-Racist Classroom, for Community and Moderation. They had Admins and Moderators in mind for this course.
"Antiracism and Communicating Online
In this two part series, come together in community to discuss and problem solve the challenges of communicating and moderating online with an antiracist lens."
This classroom is aimed at white people. The courses are discussion based, so there's no sequential curriculum, You can sign up as long as you have a commitment to Anti-racism (that means awareness of your actions in this case, and willingness to keep growing)
The first cohort is on the 20th and 27th of December (the two parts, one on each)
You can view more info, and how to sign up here:

You can even donate some money to help other people attend the course.
I took my first anti-racist course with them (their 101 course) back in January this year.
If there's still interest, but these dates don't work for you, because it's short notice or anything else, they will be looking for more opportunities in the new year. So still let them know!

This is their course I've referred to as Anti-racism 101.
Highly recommend it. I took this one even though I thought I was beyond 101, I still felt it was very valuable for me to both be part of helping other people on their journey, but also learning a few more things myself.
You need to sign up by: Wednesday, January 11th for Building Your Antiracist Journey
