Description
This interactive and reflective workshop will help participants identify and name the power structures in which they operate. We will unpack and demystify some key concepts often placed under the “EDI” (Equity, Diversity and Inclusion) umbrella, such as privilege, systemic oppression, bias, stereotype, white supremacy, anti-oppression, and anti-Black racism, while regularly reflecting and dialoguing about how power underpins all of these concepts. Participants will work in groups to identify the opportunities and barriers of advancing equity work within their specific contexts, and to develop strategies to do so.
