This paper explores the concept of being anti-racist as a ceremonial journey, using anti-racist reflective learning as its research framework. It examines my transformative journey as a racialized immigrant woman scholar by reflecting on personal experiences and engaging with community narratives. Through an anti-racist lens, the study highlights the importance of creating intercultural spaces for authentic engagement and mutual learning. By centring anti-racist learning experiences, the paper underscores my efforts to confront racism and foster social justice. Through critical reflection and communal dialogue, individuals navigate the complexities of racial consciousness, fostering empathy, solidarity, and personal growth. This paper argues that being anti-racist is not merely a personal endeavour but a collective journey towards equity and liberation, rooted in reflective learning and community engagement.
