Our Commitment to Anti-Racism, Equity, and Accessibility
We are here to listen and learn.
At Creative Collective we have a commitment to amplifying the voices of marginalized and oppressed communities. As a white-led organization, it is our responsibility as allies to serve the communities around us by offering our platforms as a space to boost important ideas, events, and information.
Here are a list of resources for those who would like to learn more about Anti-Racism, Equity, and Accessibility.*
We are working from a place of a growth and welcome all feedback, so if there is anything you feel is missing or if you are an organization dedicated to these causes and would like to be included, please reach out to us.

A Note on Intersectionality
“We do not live single issue lives.”
— AUDRE LORDE (SHE/HER/HERS)
Intersectionality refers to the overlap between a person’s experiences, acknowledging that people are no one thing, but a combination of their identity alongside social and economic aspects. Some of these aspects include race, ability, gender, privilege, socioeconomic status, and education – but there are many more.
We would be remiss in making a list of Anti-Racism, Equity, and Accessibility resources without mentioning the broad intersections between these communities, because every individual has their own unique experiences. Follow the key to access resources that touch upon multiple aspects.
