I want to continue having uncomfortable and necessary conversations. I don't want to lose the momentum of recognizing change is needed and falling into desensitized complacency.

We rarely had 100% attendance in our group meetings and scheduling was a big issue since we are all so busy. However with this new dedicated time slot, I think this will be alleviated greatly.

I want to stop worrying about people seeing me as confrontational, annoying, argumentative, etc. Having these conversations and making a conscious effort to bring awareness and motivate change is more important than how people feel about me as an individual.

Immediately passing judgement when I see something I don't agree with. I need to stop and consider other perspectives, even if it makes me upset or uncomfortable.

We each started volunteering to share something personal to us regarding equity in the way of an informal presentation of some sorts. Some shared experiences and I even created a PowerPoint once. Then we asked questions, reflected, etc. and also left time and space for other things.

I want to start doing more research and actively participating in anti-racist activism and community assistance. I want to avoid falling into complacency and accepting "performative allyship" as an acceptable response to current events. I want to be proactively anti-racist and contribute to necessary social changes, not hinder them through my privilege and inaction.

Stop allowing my differing feelings/perspective to silence my voice. If I don't share or respond, then I perpetuate marginalization and support status quo.

Stop judging. Everyone's journey is different and not everyone is in the same place in their journey but offer grace as they get there.

Start having action-oriented sessions; what can we do now to advance our equity goals; what does it look like in practice

Start actually doing something that makes a difference - at times it feels like I'm just talking and reading but not really doing anything of value

Inquiry around more specificity in implementation of culturally relevant pedagogies and strategies for antiracist teaching. And then figuring out to focus on them without naming them (to avoid them being removed from work/products funded by politicians).

Sharing with others outside of the Lastinger Center everything that we are doing. Our internal work with equity should be showcased everywhere (website, FB, etc.)! We should be loud and proud!!

to truly open up about my experiences and journey no matter how hard it is for others to hear

Be willing to be disturbed and then growing within that disturbance. Sometimes the best response is, "Thank you for noticing that or bringing that to my attention." Then taking the time to process before rejoining the conversation.....not in defense of your thoughts but with a new understanding of multiple perspectives.

Reading and listening to resources that my colleagues recommend to learn more about the equity journey.
