*Note: Talking About Race and Racism with Your Child is the Prerequisite for this Workshop. Upon completing the prerequisite workshop, a code will be given to participants that will unlock the ticket to this event. (Sign up for prerequisite Workshop: here).
In addition to having planned conversations with your child, moments that provide an opportunity to discuss racism and bias arise when we aren't expecting it, and we must say something. This workshop will focus on speaking up in the moment when racist and biased incidents occur. Through the use of scenarios, participants will have a chance to think through their responses and learn a number of sentence starters as options for support in speaking up in the moment. Thinking through and practicing what we might say in these moments can help build our confidence for when these opportunities do arise.
Facilitators: Michelle Felder, Natalie Ginsburg
