Owning Racism & Living the Solution
Racism and bias are in the forefront of everyone’s mind as our country is facing an ugly history that won’t go away. The truth is, racism and bias are all of our problems and we must learn to face our fears, explore the hidden parts of ourselves, admit our biases and choose to be a part of the solution. Not just for right now, but for all time. This webinar series will explore the history of systematic racism in our country, its consequences, and how White blindness has perpetuated it to this day. We will also dive into the foundations of bias, the reasons our brains are hardwired for it, and how our experiences reinforce our beliefs. Finally, we will review how we can become more aware of our biases, embrace our ethical responsibility to directly address racism, and learn how to be effective allies.
This webinar series will help participants find ways to facilitate conversations, overcome barriers and conflict, and take the leap toward transformation.
