The Family Journey to Anti-Racism
GET STARTEDWhat is The Peace Box?
The Peace Box aims to create change by educating, equipping and activating families in the fight against racism. Families are presented with education, community, action steps, and most importantly -- hope. Our hope is that at the end of this 24 month journey families feel empowered to take the life long journey forward into being change agents in the world around them.
The Peace Box is 24 First Steps over two years. Each box takes you on a journey through Black history, while relating the lesson to what is happening today through anti-racism education. You will learn about the unsung heroes of Black history, while also hearing personal stories of present day pain and triumph. Each box includes a book, hand-crafted activities that families do together and products that are relevant to the theme and are sourced largely from Black-owned businesses.
Our mobile app helps families connect in ongoing guided discussions. We know we’re better together, so we are building a supportive community among the families who are participating. Proceeds from the box benefit organizations that support Black and Brown communities.
