In our continuous efforts to dismantle oppressive systems and increase cultural competence, the BDM Anti-Racism Committee and Maryland Commission on African American History and Culture present our second anti-racism training: The Big Unequitable Picture; Criminal Justice, and Education. Special thanks to the 2021 Anti-Racism Coalition for developing this dynamic anti-racism training.
Participants will:
- Examine historical events, ideologies, and social structures, and how they inform modern-day beliefs, biases, and perceptions.
- Analyze concepts of racial identity, bias, privilege, and prejudice
- Reflect on their own identity, bias, privilege, and prejudice
- Identify strategies to engage in restorative conversations
- Consider ways to integrate anti-racism work into their daily lives
Immediately following the training, join us for an informal conversation unpacking the evening’s content.
