Communities of Learning

Communities of Learning or affinity groups have been described as:

​

"a group of white people who meet for the purpose of building analysis, awareness, stamina, and strategies to challenge systemic racism and internalized white supremacy. These goals require some time in intentional spaces where white people can do the personal work of understanding our own complicity in systemic racism and build the skills necessary to challenge that complicity. White affinity groups allow us to examine our racial conditioning without relying on people of colour for answers or subjecting them to our process (DiAngelo and Burtaine, 2022, p. ix)"
