Cracking the Codes: The System of Racial Inequity
PRESENTED BY: Meaningful Movies of IssaquahThis film asks America to talk about the causes and consequences of systemic inequity. Designed for dialogue, the film works to disentangle internal beliefs, attitudes and pre-judgments within, and it builds skills to address the structural drivers of social and economic inequities.
Cracking the Codes supports communities to deepen and shift the framing of racial disparities. The current conversation is not only shallow, but actually harmful. We continue to primarily focus on individuals, when institutional and structural inequities are the bigger problem.
The film contains three sections that correspond to World Trust’s framing of the self-perpetuating system of racial inequity:
Section 1: Social Determinants: History, Identity & Culture
Section 2: Internal Components: Bias, Privilege, Internalized Racism
Section 3: External Relationships: Interpersonal, Institutional, Structural
The film features moving stories from twenty-four racial justice leaders including Amer Ahmed, Michael Benitez, Barbie-Danielle DeCarlo, Joy DeGruy, Harley Eagle, Ericka Huggins, Yuko Kodama, Peggy McIntosh, Rinku Sen, Tillman Smith and Tim Wise.
Special Guests: Eastside Race & Leadership Coalition (Karin Duvall & Jo Anderson Cavinta) and Eva Abram (Public Speaker on Racism)
Sponsors: The City of Issaquah - Office of Sustainability
