While it is not a stand alone piece, it is a powerful resource that meets a unique demand. This companion to the racial equity guide does a very good job of helping racial and ethnic groups grapple and deal with issues that often are unique to their individual and group experiences; while at the same time focusing them outwardly to explore where and how change can happen through building true power-sharing partnerships and collaborations.
