Race and Racism:
Deepening Your Personal Understanding & Consciousness
Speaker:
Dr. Lori A. Watson
Wednesday, January 27, 2021
5:00 – 6:30 PM
DAW will start 2021 with important studying and reflection on the topic of Anti-Racism. Although many of us thought we had studied race and racism in the 1960s, we are in a different time and space now and we need to learn more about this subject.
Our speaker, Dr. Lori Watson will introduce participants to a foundational approach to the skills of anti-racism. Participants will be guided through personally-reflective exercises and engage in thought-provoking dialogue. We’ll examine our own personal beliefs about race and racism; recognize the impact of race in our own lives; and gain a support tool for engaging in challenging conversations about race.
This seminar is intended to introduce participants to the needed skills of anti-racism. Participants will be guided through personally reflective exercises and engage in thought-provoking dialogue, first to examine their own personal beliefs about race and racism; second, to recognize the impact of race in their own lives; and last, to acquire a tool which will support them in engaging in challenging conversations about race.
