Anti-racism is an ongoing and active process of recognizing and addressing individual, institutional, and systemic racism. Engaging in this active process requires an awareness of how race and racism affects the lived experience of racialized groups and how white people contribute, actively or unconsciously, to racism. This workshop explores how to engage critically in anti-racism and enact anti-racist practices on campus.

Audience: Students, Faculty, Staff 

This introductory workshop is designed to give staff, students, and faculty a broad understanding of equity and how our interactions with one another are shaped by systems of oppression, power, and privilege. During our discussion, we will explore the ways in which inequities, biases, and microaggressions affect our lives as individuals and communities.
