We will help our congregation recognize and set aside a culture of white supremacy and truly realize its aspiration of being a welcoming, equitable, and inclusive community. We realize that the dominant culture of white supremacy harms all our community members, but most particularly those who are Black, Indigenous and other people of color as well as those impacted by the intersectional effects of gender oppression, heterosexism, ableism, and classism.

In pursuing these ends, we will…

• work to dismantle white supremacy culture;
• maintain an antiracist focus that promotes equity, justice, and inclusion;
• continue to educate ourselves and others about all aspects of white supremacy culture, and how we might dismantle it;
• work to maintain cultural diversity within our action group;
• take direction from, support the efforts of, and collaborate with communities of color;
• support and collaborate with other marginalized communities;
• join hands with the Portland faith community and with local and national advocacy and activist groups to help build a city, state, and nation committed to justice, equity, and personal wellbeing; and
• be mindful that mistakes will be made, that we will seek to rectify them and humbly begin again in love.
