The UT Austin School of Nursing Community Climate and Care Committee presents the Anti-Racist Teaching (ART) Club. For those interested in the practice of ART, join faculty and staff as we discuss ways to continue practicing antiracism (inside and outside of the classroom) and the things that sometimes get in the way.

While our country was still processing and mourning the deaths of Ahmaud Arbery and Breonna Taylor, we watched as George Floyd’s life was taken right before our eyes. We continue to grieve the losses of Mike Ramos, Philando Castile, Trayvon Martin, Sandra Bland, Tamir Rice, and countless other black men, women, and children who have died at the hands of those who devalue human life. These traumatic events and resultant suffering are unfortunately not new to communities of color, and are symptoms of a deeper problem with which our nation has yet to grapple.
