Tomorrow, Feb. 25, is the conclusion of York Public Library’s four-part Forum on Race and Equity with Maine-based Racial Equity and Reconciliation Advocate Dustin Ward.
The forum has been informative, powerful, enlightening, and humbling. In the first three forum sessions, Ward shared his personal experiences of racism as a Person of Color growing up in Maine, a state in which the population is 95% white (Fact: We are tied with Vermont as being “the Whitest” State).
In his talks, Ward has discussed the reality of Black life in America and racist structures that pervade society (in education, healthcare, housing, the economy, and the justice system, to name a few). He’s asked attendees thought-provoking questions and offered warm encouragement all the way as we continue or more likely, begin our antiracist journeys.

Several months have passed since Black Lives Matter protests took cities by storm and businesses pledged to do the hard work of creating more diverse and equitable workplaces. Many large companies took highly visible action: Apple started a partnership with historically Black colleges, while Netflix released an extensive inclusion report on its efforts to fight racism in the entertainment industry.
For small businesses though, developing appropriate policies and initiatives can be more difficult. What we saw is that there were no solutions or places to get information that smaller companies and growing companies could use to help them drive change in their organization, says Travis Montaque, founder and CEO of Holler, a company that creates animated stickers and GIFs for messaging apps.
