About this Event
The Anti-Racism Commission's anti-racism training series is facilitated by Lailah Dunbar-Keeys and designed to help participants understand the historic creation, preservation, and personal and institutional effects of a society built upon ideas of racial difference, which in turn support an unjust, racially based hierarchy. The series repeats annually, and offers the Introduction to Systemic Racism training 3 times a year.
Racism and Identity explores the ways in which systemic racism informs our personal identity, behaviors and outcomes. We will develop a sociological understanding of the concepts colorblindness, colorism, cultural appropriation, unconscious bias, micro-aggressions, White fragility, and White privilege. Completion of the Introduction to Systemic Racism training is a prerequisite for this part of the series.
All anti-racism trainings are from 9 am to noon on Zoom. Fee: $15. Scholarships are available, especially for postulants and candidates for ordination. Email [email protected]. Anti-racism trainings are mandatory for clergy and open to all. Completion of all 5 trainings over 2 years meets the initial clergy requirement for anti-racism education. Email [email protected] to obtain a certificate of completion.
