To be an effective changemaker, each of us needs to awaken to where we are personally located in our understanding of race and racial injustice in America and how that understanding informs our ongoing antiracism commitment.

In this workshop, participants will learn the seven phases of the racial consciousness continuum. They will identify where they are currently located on the continuum and recognize the steps necessary to advance through it, so that together we can heal the wounds of racial injustice to create a just and peaceful society.

Participants will be able to:

• Identify where they are currently located on the continuum
• Build resilience to mitigate the risk of regression
• Develop skills and practices to progress their racial consciousness
• Effectively engage with people in various phases on the continuum

Participants will have the opportunity for honest self-reflection, deepen their self-awareness, identify specific areas for personal growth, and build accountability partnerships with other changemakers.

All participations will receive a certificate of completion.
