It can start with us.

AT BLUE RIDGE COMMUNITY COLLEGE,

we value cultural, gender, racial, and ethnic diversity.

AT BLUE RIDGE,

diversity and inclusion make us stronger.

AT BLUE RIDGE,

hate and racism have no place.

Like so many across the country, we are dismayed and heartbroken. Yet we are also committed to working together to not just address racism at its roots, but to understand how we can cultivate a level of kindness, acceptance, and inclusion that will one day cast such a large shadow over the roots of racism, that they cease to grow. 

After all, we are educators.
