Individuals and institutional leaders responsible for diversity and social justice will appreciate the exploration of the historical development of systemic racism and its continuing effects on our society and on the arts sector in particular. Participants will examine ongoing realities of racism including the identity-shaping power racism has on People of Color and White people; explore racism’s individual, institutional and cultural manifestations; and consider the link between racism and other forms of oppression. A strategic methodology to dismantle racism will be introduced, focusing specifically on applying principles of organizing and social/cultural change. Registration includes workshop materials, snacks on Thursday evening and continental breakfast and lunch on Friday and Saturday. Professional learning programs and other arts-related events hosted by notable local and national arts organizations. For workshop cost and to register, email Ryan Blocker: [email protected].
