Members to Understand & Unravel Racism:
Part 1, May 15th: Understanding & Unraveling Racism
This interactive and engaging experience will facilitate participants learning about the origins of race and racism in the US and begin to recognize themselves within systems of oppression. Participants will develop a shared language, definitions, and an understanding of the intersectionality of racism and foundational concepts of oppression. Gaining this fundamental understanding will allow participants to show up more authentically in their personal and professional life and examine and develop their racial consciousness and identity. We will create an action plan based on unlearning/learning and build on the foundation of understanding & unraveling racism with a specific emphasis on housing and education.
Come learn about the connections between historical racism, structural racism, and its devastating impact on modern-day Long Island.
Part 2, June 13th: Navigating Conflict: Having Difficult Conversations
A continuation of ERASE’s learning series, in this training you will build on the knowledge from Unraveling Racism to learn how to participate in challenging conversations about race, inequity, and diversity. Participants will learn thoughtful and restorative practices to navigate conflict. During this training, participants will identify their conflict archetype, unpack how their identity and socialization have contributed to their approach to conflict, and discern how to approach conflict in a way that honors their and others’ humanity.
