Take Part in Jesuit’s 21 Day Racial Awareness Challenge
Beginning November 2nd, the Diversity Equity and Inclusion Office will challenge the Jesuit community to engage in a 21 day event in an effort to become a more culturally aware and Anti-racist community.
The Ignatian Racial Equity Challenge will give students the opportunity to understand the realities of racial injustice endured by people of color throughout the nation. This challenge will provide a unique look into the lives of individuals facing racial injustice, and will help participants explore racial equity in light of the Jesuit faith and Ignatian Spirituality.
Participants will receive daily emails with a challenge beginning November 2nd and ending November 22nd. Sign up by October 30th by clicking this link.
About the Contributor
Steele Clevenger, Editor-in-Chief and Creative Director
Sarcastic. Artistic. Enthusiastic. These are three words Steele Clevenger would use to describe herself. A senior at Jesuit High School and a veteran journalism student, Steele loves to write about people and topical issues facing our local and global communities, draw comics, and educate through news. From a young age, Steele has been interested in journalism, spending many an hour listening to her mom type articles for the OHSU “Cementum” on her computer, and being dragged to interviews with dental students. When she was in eighth grade, Steele attended a once-weekly journalism class, running around the school on Friday afternoons to interview teachers and students. Using her experience in journalism and her passion for communication, Steele hopes to be a voice of positivity and curiosity for Jesuit students during such unprecedented and uncertain times. In addition to writing, Steele enjoys badminton, knitting, cooking, and creating art. Visit her website at www.steelescomics.wordpress.com.
