Conversations on Race 

Virtual 6- part Series 

Fall 2020

Eliminating racism is an ongoing process that involves a willingness to learn about, and begin, undoing, the adverse impact of racism on individuals, organizations, and communities.

In the wake of George Floyd’s death, all of us are considering what we can do to change systemic racism.

This series will help you discuss and break down racial bias. 

This is an opportunity to learn about the history and impact of racism and what you can do about it.  

Each two-hour session will allow time for content review (video clips, reflection questions) along with listening pairs, breakout rooms and full group discussions.

  • September 23: racial implicit bias
  • September 30: history/roots of racism
  • October 7: manifestations of racism
  • October 14: on whiteness
  • October 21: addressing race and racism daily
  • October 28: wrap up

In order to address racism, in all the places where we witness its oppressive power, we need people who understand it, can address it and challenge it. 

We will end racism when more people, particularly white people, understand the importance of taking action to intervene and change racialized outcomes impacting people of color in work, personal and structural settings.  

All are welcome! Registration required. Sessions held over Zoom.    

To ensure a smooth class start, make sure to complete  the required Racial Justice Intake form in order to join your first session.
