Partner Workshop:Racial Justice Stances: Grounding in Our Truths

An Offering to Organizations

The work of dismantling white supremacy challenges us to embody our truest selves and our deepest values. But often, even talking about racism with others takes us away from ourselves and from conscious choice in how we show up. This workshop supports participants in developing new tools to stay rooted in who they are and what they value, even in moments of tension and conflict.

This workshop will help participants:

-Develop a stance for racial justice conversations rooted in their core values, beliefs and longings for the world; -Better understand, notice and navigate their triggers; -Sharpen discernment around when and how to engage in racial justice conversations; -Practice their stances in real-world scenarios, guided by facilitators; and -Hone their practice of racial justice conversations over time.
