10:00 AM - 12:00 PM Eastern
When engaging in conversations around race and racism in our society, a common point that is made is “I don’t see color” or “I treat everyone the same.” However, we know that “not seeing color” means ignoring an important part of a person’s identity. This session will introduce the topic of anti-racism and discuss some strategies to effectively engage in anti-racism.
Topics will include:
- Racial Identity Development
- History and Impact of Segregation
- Hierarchy, Power, and Passivism
- Anti-Racist Resources
- Anti-Racism In Action
