WORKSHOP BY DR HEATHER HACKMAN - Climate Change MindSet: Why a Critical Racial Justice Mindset is Essential for Effective Climate Justice
The purpose of this workshop, led by Dr Heather Hackman (www.hackmanconsultinggroup.org) is to clearly demonstrate how the Global North's longstanding and oppressive mindset regarding Race, Racism and Whiteness (RRW)* has informed the current climate emergency, and how a change in that mindset is essential for effective climate justice work.

More specifically, the workshop helps participants begin to identify and then change those dynamics so they do not continue to scuttle their ongoing climate justice work.  Throughout the day, participants will be asked to analyze their own work or that of their organization, using a series of assessment and action steps from a critical RRW Climate Justice Framework.

The core premise of this session is that if we do not fundamentally transform the RRW oppressive mindset of the last 250 years, we are likely to advance solutions that are imbued with these same problematic dynamics that got us here in the first place.  As such, utilizing an RRW Climate Justice Framework is vital in our efforts to identify innovative, effective, and long-term climate solutions.

This workshop is a mix of lecture/content delivery, participant discussion, and participant application.  The work is drawn from over 20 years of teaching and training on social justice content and the last handful of years teaching and training in climate change and climate justice from a social justice framework.

*While it is understood that Class and Gender oppression are deeply implicated in the overall mindset that has led to this climate crisis, this workshop isolates RRW in order to dig deeply into the complexity of these issues.

NOTE: This one-day workshop is a pre-requisite for the advanced workshop Dr Hackman will be leading on Monday October 20th, "A Deeper Dive: Exploring the Complicated Connections of Racial Justice and Climate Justice and Corresponding Pathways for Action".  Register here:  http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/880657.
