The National Center for Race Amity presents its 2026 Atlanta Race Amity Leadership Symposium, “Bias and Belonging in the Age of AI.”

Authors Howard J. Ross and Jake Ross, co-authors of the second edition of Everyday Bias, will lead an interactive, intergenerational conversation exploring how artificial intelligence, social media, algorithms and online communities influence unconscious bias, identity, belonging and perceptions of race and difference.

Participants will consider how curiosity, humility and genuine human connection can help us become more conscious users and creators of technology—and build a future in which more people experience dignity, understanding and belonging.

Free and open to the public. The program will also be livestreamed. More information: https://raceamity.org/event/2026-atlanta-symposium/

United Colors of Cancer invites adult cancer patients, survivors, thrivers, and caregivers across the United States to participate in the 1,000 Voices for Cancer Equity™ Campaign.

This national listening initiative is documenting the real experiences of people affected by cancer. The anonymous survey takes approximately 10–12 minutes and centers BIPOC and underserved communities while welcoming participants of every race and background.

Responses will help identify barriers involving access to care, emotional support, financial burden, treatment experiences, and whether patients and caregivers feel heard. The findings will inform more equitable, culturally responsive cancer programs, research, and advocacy.

United Colors of Cancer is working toward collecting 1,000 voices by September 24, 2026—World Cancer Research Day. The survey will remain open through December 31, 2026.

Every Color. Every Voice. Every Cancer.
