“Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” – James Baldwin


We realize that we have not been trained to have candid conversations about racism and racial justice in the workplace.

But as HR professionals, it is our job to sit in discomfort and ensure that every member of our organization feels safe and encouraged to do their best work.

We believe that HR can become a force for meaningful change and that’s how HR.Hackathon Alliance’s #HRvsRacism initiative was born in August 2020.

#HRvsRacism Design Team

Our goal for this #HRvsRacism space is to support HR professionals on their journey from discomfort to empathy, enabling courageous action.

Welcome to #HRvsRacism - the space where you can learn, reflect, and collaborate with a like-minded community.
