Equity Educators are a group of EWU students who facilitate workshops to promote equitable frameworks and practices within EWU and the broader community. They foster critical consciousness and a transformative campus climate by helping students understand topics such as systems of oppression, intersectionality, privilege, and microaggressions. Equity Educators strive to combat hate in the community through education and transformative practices.
