For most Americans, talking about race in mixed company is pretty uncomfortable.  Race talk can be a minefield of trigger words and tend to talk more about the problem more than the solution. During this two-hour session, participants will discuss racial anxiety, learn strategies for having difficult conversations about race, and engage in small group discussions.  The goal of this training is to help members engage in meaningful and empathetic conversation about race.


GOALS
  • Help members have meaningful, empathetic, and productive conversations around race
  • Learn strategies to increase and reduce anxiety associated with talking about race
  • Develop a sense of shared language
