I wonder where grace and accountability fit within our agreements - thinking back to the quote I shared earlier from The Four Pivots.  What can we build and what do we need to battle - individually and collectively?

Along with discomfort comes grit and resilience. I think these are some values that we can tie into this agreement.

Experiencing discomfort almost feels synonymous with being able to be vulnerable.

Be open to the truths/ experiences of others, have a validating attitude

I believe that Actively Listen and Understand are two agreements to add. It is similar to stay engaged, but I think that it is essential to fully listen to perspectives of everyone.

I think sometimes we forget how hard it is to speak our truths, but at the same time it is imperative to understand each person.

I think staying engaged within each DEI session can go further into keeping the ideas that we're learning active in our daily lives and communities, not just in the education space.

no shame/judgment! when sharing experiences when we acknowledge we should have done better, or if we have a question about a concept we think we should know more about, there should be a no shame policy. we are all growing together & judgment only hinders vulnerability and growth

I feel that this something that is not spoken enough about. This is something I struggle with. I think expecting non-closure can be a scaring thought. The world discusses closure but what it is never given. I would love to discuss this more.

When it comes to dismantling any oppressive system, the only way to do that is to accurately identify what the problem is. The victims of these systems tend to be the experts on these problems, which is why their voices must be amplified. As anti-racist educators and people, we must be committed to listening and amplifying the voices of marginalized people. -Amir Bangura

I agree with Jordan, I would love to learn how to build a conversation related to DEI to help people understand that I am no where near attacking them, but instead trying to educate them on the problem. Going back to the analogy from earlier, it is important to be that person walking backwards, but how do we do it in a way to help people not be so defensive.

social awareness and emotional intelligence. since we are being vulnerable we also have to consider each other feelings
