MARCH FOR UNDERSTANDING
Events & Program
Welcome to our 19th Annual March campaign.
What began as a one-day commemoration of March 21st (the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination), has grown into a month-long campaign to educate and inspire our communities to work towards eliminating racism and promoting equity across all aspects of our society.
This year there are more activities than ever before— with most being offered at no cost or for a nominal fee.

Sincerely, The March for Understanding Planning Team
ABOUT US The Centre for Race and Culture (CRC) works

and create social change.
Our reach is wide and constantly expanding. We
work at all levels of society and within our diverse
communities. We are driven to understand what

work can be beneficial to communities in need.

Synopsis: Chris Rock says he was inspired to make the film when his young daughter asked him, "Daddy, how come I don't have good hair?" and he and Stilson ex-amine black America's obsession with their hair as they visit the Bronner Brothers International Hair Show, an annual trade show for the African-American hair care industry which includes fierce competitions among stylists from around the country and demon-strations of new hair products and techniques. Along the way, Rock also talks to a number of African-American luminaries about their hair issues (including Maya Angelou, the Rev. Al Sharpton, Nia Long, Raven Symone, Ice-T, and Paul Mooney), researches the dan-gers of many common hair-straightening treatments, reveals the surprising expense of regular hair "relaxing" and weaves, and ponders what the pursuit of straight hair says about African-American cultural identity. Good Hair received its world premiere at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival.
