What Is Your Key Antiracism Challenge? In this episode Anita, Mavis, and Gail continue their Community Conversation making it personal. They each discuss what they each define as their Key Racism Challenge. Points of Reflection:
• Based on your George Floyd origin story, what is your definition of yourself after vs before the murder? Has there been a shift?
• What is most challenging — knowing yourself, knowing where you stand, or being visible to others?
• How does doing the work antiracism connect to your social identity?   Examples of Key Antiracism Challenges: Expressing empathy through perspective-taking along with immersion into the historical narratives and personal experiences of others.  Engaging in conversations about antiracism in all the spaces in which you move - your home, workplace, place of worship, your immediate community, and the communities of those who are different from you.  Engaging in conversations with racism deniers or those who believe we live in a post-racial/colorblind society.  Persuading those who claim to be nonracist or not racist that racism is a problem that affects us all because it is embedded in the social, economic, systemic, educational, and institutional fabric that covers all of America
