Intended Audience: This session is open to all SPH Faculty & Staff members, and will be particularly useful for SPH community members who have attended Sessions #1 & #2 or who are familiar with core concepts related to racism, intersectionality, anti-racism and are looking to learn more about strategies and practices for anti-racist intervention and change. Workshop Description: Intentional and sustainable impact means moving at the speed of trust which requires truth and transparency. Reflecting on our differing truths helps shift us from being transactional to transformational, so that equity is not just something we do but being anti-racist/anti-oppressive as an equity practice, is who we become. This session will help participants:
- by building on Sessions #1 & #2 to help participants think concretely about acting for anti-racist change. Transforming our systems calls for us to transform ourselves with an inside-out, both-and approach.
- be introduced to the iceberg model as a framework for understanding structural racism. The iceberg model is designed to help participants better strategize appropriate anti-racist practices and interventions in their spheres of influence.
