TriHealth Bridge

Talking about race can be hard and doing the actual work to acknowledge injustices and differences, and to support and advocate for better and equal outcomes for often marginalized communities can be even harder.

 

This Allyship Guide was developed to spur reflective thoughts, hard conversations and bold actions. We hope you find the resources and content motivational, insightful, eye-opening and, maybe even heartbreaking or infuriating. We curated these materials based on our individual and shared experiences in society.

 

Education is key. Taking the time to better understand our country’s past and present can change our future. Black people alone cannot change the way society operates. It will take each of us being invested, committed and collaborative.

 

In the guide, we feature recommended books, podcasts, movies, documentaries, advocacy groups, and much more. We hope the resources will either launch, accelerate or deepen your allyship journey.

 

Thanks to Diversity & Inclusion for this resource!

I gave another one of these out today to a patient. The conversation comes up especially with my black patients and they are grateful to have something concrete to be able to share with their white friends and co-workers. This really is a wonderful document that has unfortunately gotten a little buried by all of our covid angst. Thank you again ladies.

Hey, I like this very much! I've been taking a few minutes to speak to my black patients about these issues and am learning an amazing amount but I have not wanted to burden them with asking for advice about what I can personally do. I have assured them I will exercise my vote etc. And one particularly socially active patient gave me some ideas about where to donate money. I think she would be pleased that I am working for an organization that has put this together. I will forward it to her and get her thoughts. Thanks again for putting this together, it is really needed.

I am so proud of TriHealth for doing this. Education definitely is key to get a better understanding of our past and most importantly the future of the country. I'm very proud to be apart of such a caring organization!

I am so proud of TriHealth for doing this. I would like to add that "black lives matter" as a goal and an informal movement is inclusive of all kinds of people including those who identify as Pro-Israel or Pro-Life, even while the official BLM organization has specific goals you might not agree with. We all believe black lives matter, right? If you want to support racial equality financially, but don't want to support the politics of the BLM organization, please consider NAACP or the Equal Justice Collaborative (or many others).
