This interactive workshop is designed for students, staff, and faculty to deepen their understanding of anti-racism and its role in creating meaningful change within their spheres of influence. Participants will explore key concepts related to racism and anti-racism, challenging mainstream narratives that perpetuate systems of oppression. The session will cover how systemic racism shapes both interpersonal and institutional experiences, while providing practical strategies for implementing anti-racist practices in daily life and the workplace. The workshop will also explore intersectionality, offering tools to integrate anti-racist actions into decision-making and promote equitable, context-specific interventions.

Through facilitated discussion, this session invites participants to explore the unspoken norms and expectations in higher education that can influence students’ learning experiences and success. It also invites learners to question how implicit biases shape the hidden curriculum and discuss strategies to recognize and navigate it. Join us for a collaborative discussion designed to empower students to uncover and address it effectively.
