2026 BHFAND Cohort

Our purpose is to understand how the African-American experience has shaped the world we all live in, and how allies can find roles supporting racial justice today. We will lead this process without the use of guilt, finger-pointing, or propaganda, and lead from a place of compassion, community, and understanding. Rooting ourselves in our history, and understanding how we got here, will help us move forward together to make a better world and a stronger local community.

Our course is available in three flexible formats to suit your needs: "Monday in person" for those who prefer face-to-face interaction, "Monday virtual" for a live online experience on the same day and an asynchronous format that allows you to complete coursework at your own pace, anytime. Each option is designed to provide you with the same quality content and support, ensuring that you can learn in the way that works best for you.
