in order for folks to really do this work, it's important to have safety and space to mess up. it's kind of risky to do this with work with coworkers - including your peers, leadership, HR, etc.

2 sessions of training on this topic is not adequate... in social work school, students take a semester-long course on these topics. if we really want to address it, and dig into the work in a meaningful way, more needs to be done.

this is a good first step but cannot be the end of the process.

I think "not seeing color" is an unrealistic way of going through the world. I grew up learning to respect everyone as human beings but to also acknowledge that we come from a variety of different cultural backgrounds, races and religions and that my experience based on those factors will be different than other people and to not  devalue all our differences by being "colorblind".

Thank you for thoughtfully unpacking some of the comments on the padlet from last time that were upsetting. For my action, I'd like to figure out how to be more vocally anti-racist as a white male. This involves navigating the discomfort inherent in my privilege and not wanting my voice to overshadow those whose voices haven't been heard from nearly enough.
