TRANSFORMATION IN ACTION: DR DANIELLE DICKENS 2/4/2022
Dr Danielle Dickens is an Associate Professor of Psychology, Spelman College joins us in February to talk about the psychological toll of identity shifting (sometimes referred to as code switching).
In this interactive talk, Dr. Dickens will break down why people from oppressed groups may feel pressured to adapt their behaviors in the workplace, the benefits of costs of shifting, and how to create inclusive working environments to lessen the need of shifting by those who are marginalized.
Thursday, February 4th at 6pm PT
WORKSHOP BEGINS FEBRUARY 13th

- Vocabulary to help guide you through issues of racism and antiracism concepts

- A community to support you and hold each other accountable to your plan

WHERE DO I START?
By being willing to look inward. Shifting our gaze from the obvious racists "out there" to the origins of white supremacy in our own lives. Author and educator Rachel Ricketts advises that you're not ready to do the work if you're not ready to feel uncomfortable. So let's get uncomfortable together.
