"Belonging: Bridging Beyond Othering" is published by the Othering & Belonging Institute at UC Berkeley as part of a collaboration with Belonging Colorado, a project of The Denver Foundation. The teams worked together to inform Belonging Colorado stakeholders on moving Belonging without Othering into practice through bridging.
This publication, written by john a. powell with contribution from Shadrick Small and Ashley Gallegos, synthesizes some of the key frameworks of bridging and belonging and reflects on the experiences of a changing, growing Colorado. As part of OBI's Places of Belonging work, this paper offers an introduction into key considerations of advancing State strategies towards belonging through a focus on the efforts actively being made in Colorado. While every state strategy towards belonging will and should look different, this paper highlights some insights for moving the frames of Othering, Belonging and Bridging into action.
