Event
Racial Microagressions: Real Pain, Invisible Scars
"Racial Microaggressions--Real Pain, Invisible Scars" will provide a theoretical and experiential overview of racial microaggressions, based on the work of Dr. Sue.
This day-long workshop will:
* Explore how people of color experience and white people perpetuate racial microaggressions in personal and professional settings
* Address how people and communities of color have been conditioned to engage in racial microaggressions toward one another
* Examine the role of media, language, and societal/institutional norms in encouraging racial microaggressions
* Practice confronting racial microaggressions when they happen
This will be an interactive workshop intended to challenge participants and produce a genuine discourse on this very real and painful reality. Participants will be asked to honestly reflect and share (individually and in groups) about ways they have engaged in racial microaggressions and/or been the recipients of racial microaggressions.
While other types of microaggressions exist, the focus of this presentation will be solely on racial microaggressions.
Lunch will be provided.
