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". https://padlet.com/dennisc6/lbm88syklx5n30u9/wish/830094181 2020-10-14 19:47:53 UTC https://padlet.com/dennisc6/lbm88syklx5n30u9/wish/830094181 We should not remain "neutral" when it comes to policies/ politics that do hard to others, simply because we are therapists- this reinforces the problem https://padlet.com/dennisc6/lbm88syklx5n30u9/wish/830094610 2020-10-14 19:48:02 UTC https://padlet.com/dennisc6/lbm88syklx5n30u9/wish/830094610 go beyond just posting on social media, dig into deeper action https://padlet.com/dennisc6/lbm88syklx5n30u9/wish/830094814 2020-10-14 19:48:07 UTC https://padlet.com/dennisc6/lbm88syklx5n30u9/wish/830094814 need more training https://padlet.com/dennisc6/lbm88syklx5n30u9/wish/830096782 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.
