About the Event
This is an intensive workshop for people ready to look more deeply at the historical development of racism in the U.S. A common definition of racism will be explored, and each manifestation of racism - individual, institutional and cultural - will be examined along with their effects on both communities of color and white communities. The issue of racism and the task of dismantling racism will be viewed from political, social, spiritual, and ethical perspectives.

Setting
The workshop will be conducted in an atmosphere of mutual respect, caring and safety. It is not based on confrontation, guilt and judgment. Each component builds on another, so full-time participation is required.

All interested persons, especially leaders responsible for diversity or social justice agendas in any type of institution including: healthcare, public and private school systems, colleges and universities, governmental, financial, philanthropic, judicial, public safety, faith-based and community-based organizations.
