Harnessing Privilege for Equity and Justice
May 16, 23 & 30, 2019
In this workshop, we will explore how to recognize our personal privileges and how to use it to interrupt the status quo in real time. We will also examine our own blockages to taking action, including the real and perceived risks associated with those actions. This is an interactive workshop: role plays and small-group discussions will be included. Applicable for workplace, social events, activism, community organizing and everyday settings.
Goal: Participants will be able to employ strategies to become active allies, to be able to interrupt bias and discrimination in their everyday life experiences. This workshop is designed for all adults.
