Step Up Your Behavior and Actions on Race.
A Two Hour Masterclass to get started on your daily actions
19th November 2020
12PM CT / 1 PM ET / 6 PM GMT
Recent events have once again shone a light on the brutal impact of racism and systemic oppression in all walks of life. Promises and commitments to moving forward and standing with Black and Brown people only work if they are followed with sustained action. We have heard many White people say they want to be part of the change, but they do not know where to start. For real change to happen it really is going take White people owning their white privilege and being willing to do better every day. Does this sound like you?
You want to be anti-racist and you don’t know where to start?
You say you don’t know what to say, so you say nothing.
You want to be part of the change and have been asking the question ‘What can I do to be better and do better?’
You say that you are an ally or want to be an ally, but are not taking any action.
You are wondering what it really looks like to be anti-racist each day.
If you are serious about being the change verses talking about the change it starts with education and it must have ACTION.
This masterclass will be a practical and action oriented session which is about What to DO and What NOT TO DO.
It’s about how you TAKE ACTION instead of waiting.
It's about how you START TO REPAIR DAMAGE in relationships.
We will also look at HOW YOU KNOW YOU ARE BEING AN ALLY.
It’s about starting to understand WHAT’S YOUR WORK to be better and do better.
THIS IS NOT A QUICK FIX - this is a start. It requires a willingness to learn and then act. We are working with people who want to change their actual behaviors and this workshop is about that.
