Zoom

REI’s two (2) day Zoom Phase 1 training is designed to develop the capacity of participants to understand racism in its institutional and structural forms. Moving the focus from individual bigotry and bias, the Racial Equity Institute’s Phase I Workshop presents a historical, cultural, structural and institutional analysis of racism. With a clear understanding of how institutions and systems are producing unjust and inequitable outcomes, participants are better equipped to work for change. It builds the capacity of participants to identify the root causes of disparity and establish goals and strategies based on that deeper understanding. Participants develop an analysis of institutional racism that supports their organization in adopting a common understanding of the problem and a common language to address it. This paradigm shifting experience redefines issues of equity as they manifest today in systems and institutions and the attendant actions of individuals. The zoom information will be sent a few days prior to the start of the training.
