About


Bridge Builders are participants of (Bridging social ties that cut across differences such as race, class or ethnicity) in society, groups and  organizations etc. Through the nature of their intentions, they open the dialog for the far too often shunted discussion of Systemic racism, forward motion and goal achievement. In this forum of trust and reciprocity, the freedom for individuals to connect across the ethnic/racial divide through each personal story can be both shared and heard.

The Christian method of Koinoia Acts 2:46-47 (sharing and having all things in common), promotes Social Capital. Broadly defined, “Social Capital ” is a term identifying the value of a community’s relationships; in contrast to Human Capital, which is locked up in the skills of an individual.

Accord1 is a predominately a virtual racial justice organization. Our organization offers news and opinion to start the conversation of dismantling systemic racism. Our goal is to encourage civic involvement and promote policies for change.

Be part of the solution instead of the problem **Talk**; one to one, face to face, small group, through the Accord1 House to House Network, accord1.org  or on facebook and most certainly through this blog.
