Kerry Cavers (she/her)

Founder and President

Kerry is an anti-racism advocate, facilitator, community builder and founder of Moms Against Racism (Canada). She is a biracial, Black presenting, cis-gender woman of African, English, Swedish. Kerry is a mom to 3 young kiddos under the age of 10; two of whom are white presenting and one who is Black presenting.

​

Born on the traditional territory of the Songhees First Nation, now known as Victoria, BC, Kerry grew up with her white mother, in a predominantly white town, disconnected from her Black heritage. Over the last twenty years she has been on a journey to discover who she is, reconnect to culture, and learn the stories of her ancestors. This included earning a degree in Psychology, becoming certified in Emotional Intelligence, and years of personal development programs, workshops, and trainings. 

​

Kerry found many of her friends wanted to discuss racism and how to raise anti-racist children. Although emotionally taxing, she welcomed these opportunities for dialogue and to influence a shift in understanding. Wanting to inspire change on a larger scale, she created MAR Canada to bring Moms, and those in mothering roles, together in a mutual aid movement to fight systemic racism.
