This event is an intentional conversation about whiteness, white supremacy, and white privilege. This is not to be considered a “formal training” or “academic session,” but rather participating in a process that white folks can be doing on a regular basis to become more skillful at anti-racist work. It’s about continuing to lean into the work of unpacking whiteness, white supremacy, and white privilege to dismantle systemic racism and the interpersonal harm that people of color experience as a result of interacting and working with white people. 

During the meeting, you will be asked to reflect on three prompts. Please use these links to access three Google Forms where you can record your responses during the meeting. Your responses will be anonymous by default. John will be using this feedback to guide our conversation. 

Prompt 1           Prompt 2             Prompt 3

(These links will also be shared in the chat bar during the Zoom meeting.)
 
John Henderson is an administrator at Colorado State University, former secondary educator and Peace Corps Volunteer. In this work, around unpacking whiteness, white supremacy, and white privilege, John, who identifies as white, is continuing to understand the depths of which white supremacy and racism, in the United States, interpersonally and systemically, continue to harm while providing unearned advantages – depending on one’s identities.  For John, he will need to continue to lean into this work and learn from feedback about how he can improve his anti-racist work, both interpersonally and systemically.     

See you tomorrow! Thank you for taking part in this important conversation!
