!
Phase I -- Foundational Training in Historical and Institutional Racism
In our contemporary society, racism shapes the outcomes of all institutions. It pits entrenched
patterns of power against what are often faint images of equity.
Yet even those who are concerned about growing achievement gaps, disparities in health and
wealth, and the mass incarceration of black and brown people are challenged in their
understanding of how racism remains alive and well in all our institutions, advantaging some
while harming others.
This workshop helps participants become clear on how race and racism have been constructed
in the US and how ideas about racism live in our unconscious minds and social structures
even 50 years after the successes of the Civil Rights movement.
“An organized lie is more powerful than a disorganized truth.”
This workshop is important for people of color and white people who are committed to
eliminating racism. It provides an analysis that helps participants gain clarity about how
racism is organized and how to work to disrupt its powerful influence.
