Overview of Sessions 

Session 1: Starting at the Start: Exploring Race Consciousness

Developing race consciousness - our awareness of the role race plays in our everyday lives - is an essential step to understanding the way we see and experience the world, as well as how others’ experiences differ from our own. Join us as we explore:

- How to gain awareness of the way race has impacted our own life experiences 

- What we can learn by understanding each others’ similar and differing racial experiences

- How this internal, individual race consciousness relates to our understanding of race, racism, and anti-racism in the external world around us

Session 2: Deep Dive: The Real Work of Anti-Racism

In order to work toward racial equality through anti-racism, we must become aware of the many facets of racial inequality created by racism in the world around us and learn how to choose to intervene. Join us as we explore:

- How race impacts our own and each others’ experiences of the world

- The choice as bystander to intervene or overlook racist behavior

- How to be an anti-racist upstander

Session 3: The Real Work of Anti-Racism: My Sphere of Influence

Join us as we explore the foundation of anti-racist work: understanding where we have influence and how we can navigate those spaces and use our influence to shift the narrative.

Session 4: The Real Work of Anti-Racism: Being an Upstander

No one wants to be a bystander to racial injustice, but what does choosing to be an upstander instead mean? Join us to explore what being an upstander looks & sounds like (role playing with some common scenarios included!), and how can we be upstanders in our spheres of influence, in our community, and in our everyday lives.
