About this Event
As conflict and fear escalate around us, heightened by the media, silence confronts us. White educators have a responsibility to navigate complex classroom, colleague, and parent dynamics. And yet, we cannot engage fully in this work without supportive places to reflect, practice, and confront how white supremacy culture operates within our personal and school contexts.
This 3-session, online cohort will center collective dialogue, offering White educators the opportunity to reflect on and process how they are experiencing—emotionally and somatically—this rise in global, national, and local conflict. Participants will also consider the ways that white supremacy culture prevents us from breaking our silence and stepping into conflict with curiosity and humility. Participants will learn from one another through collective wisdom and will gain concrete strategies and frameworks to support their work moving forward.
Questions we'll explore:
- How do we build community in our classroom spaces that will allow us to respond meaningfully to conflict?
- How can we get better at supporting ourselves and our communities in times of conflict?
- How do we move forward when we feel overwhelmed by the intensity of conflict?
Our offering:
- A supportive community to process our own stories and experiences as well as strategies to explore complexities in our own communities
- Opportunities to practice breaking habits of silence
- Frameworks for navigating conflict (somatic and dynamic strategies to help you engage your full self in complex moments of conflict)
WHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE</h4>
This virtual ongoing program is for white-identifying educators who are committed to disrupting white supremacy culture through compassion, curiosity, and community.
