A Perspective on Racism

Why we're talking about it?

Our Founder and President Reggie Rivers is a leading voice in the Colorado Community, and his thoughts and ideas are an important resource during this time of racial tension.


Reggie is a 52-year-old African-American man who worries about the health and safety of his 17-year-old African American son, but also worries about the health and safety of our community.

What's the goal?

Reggie has a special talent for explaining complex subjects through analogies and allegories that allow people to see the issues in a whole new light.


Our goal is to help our community see the evidence of systemic racism, and understand how to combat it.

This is a column published in The Denver Post in which Reggie explains systemic racism through a simple analogy -- White people are Labrador Retrievers; Black people are Rottweilers.
