The Peace & Conciliation Project is an antiracism organization that utilizes restorative practices to engage communities in addressing the roots of structural and institutional racism. Peace is human security and the ability to live a life of dignity that is free from fear. Conciliation is the action of bringing peace and harmony to relationships and ending all strife that has historically impacted those relationships. The Project aims to right the wrongs of centuries of oppression rooted in White Colonialism by addressing the harm done to American Indians, American Descendants of Slavery, and the many groups of people who have been marginalized and oppressed since the inception of the United States.
“In a racist society, it is not enough to be non-racist, we must be antiracist.” —Angela Davis
Our mission is to heal the wounds of racial injustice through restorative practices.
