We regret to have to rescheduled the workshop due to an insufficient number of participants. In our 20+ years of organizing workshops, we’ve encountered a cancellation previously in our organizing work. We imagine you are as disappointed as we are about this change. We will hold the Undoing Racism training in the fall of 2019
Please sign up on our website to receive future emails and you will be added to our contact list. You will receive an email when we have scheduled the new date. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. Please email us at [email protected] for questions and/or comments
WE CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT RACISM
UROC of Western MA is pleased to bring you
Undoing Racism and Community Organizing Workshop
A WORKSHOP BY THE PEOPLE’S INSTITUTE FOR SURVIVAL AND BEYOND
Participants will explore what racism is, where it comes from, how it functions, why it persists and how it can be undone. The workshop emphasizes learning from history, developing leadership, maintaining accountability to communities, creating networks, undoing internalized racial oppression and understanding the role of organizational gatekeeping as a mechanism for perpetuating racism.
WHAT IS THE PEOPLE’S INSTITUTE?
A national, multiracial, anti-racist network from New Orleans dedicated to building a movement for justice and ending racism and other forms of institutional oppression. They have provided training, consultation, and leadership development to more than 110,000 people nationally and internationally. www.pisab.org
