“…As at most food-providing organizations, the foods offered at the Pantry were mostly foods that White people prefer, in large part because White people chose the foods to be distributed (Dacosta & Wilson, 1996;Li et al, 2017). Given that conceptions of healthy foods are culturally bound, we know that what is available is not always what will make people feel good about themselves and their diets (Lawless, 2009;Portnoy, 2016). Including diverse foods is a clear welcome sign for people of color, who comprise the majority of our constituency.…”

This article argues for the need for a partnership evaluation rubric focused on antiracist praxis, the application of theory into practice. Such a rubric is critical given that service-learning and community engagement now exist under the neoliberal university, which uses assessment to justify program existence. Furthermore, many of our community partners work under the nonprofit industrial complex, where it is difficult to challenge racial inequity. Community-engaged scholars have identified antiracist best practices, including using a place-based approach, partnering with constituent-led organizations, making conflict productive, using an asset-oriented approach, and building solidarity. However, the analysis of our community-engaged partnership reveals that many existing equity-based partnership rubrics do not measure antiracist praxis explicitly. We thus developed and proposed a partnership rubric to assess antiracist praxis.
