Racial inventory –

Thanks to Mary Jane F. – this is based on one developed by the Wellesley College Women’s Center some years ago.

A Preface to this Inventory….

Since the subject of race has been brought again to front and center in our country and city, I thought it might be interesting to look at this inventory that asks us about the role our race plays in the experiences of our daily lives.

This ‘racial inventory’ asks us to consider this. It is based on one developed at the Wellesley Centers for Women by Peggy McIntosh. It is one way of beginning to see the role of ‘race’ in our lives.

I’ve taken this inventory and my score is 108.

Perhaps you, also, might be curious about the role ‘race’ plays in your life. MJF
