Creating Cultures of Liberation and Justice
Your Course Description
Intercultural Engagement
- White supremacy culture impacts all of us. The characteristics of that culture are baked into our systems and many of us don’t consider the impacts. But understanding the impacts is not enough to bring about meaningful change.
- In this follow up to Breaking the Cycle of White Supremacy Culture training, you’ll take a deeper dive into three particular characteristics. And with fresh insights, you’ll explore options for changing your beliefs and habits in practical ways.
- Learning how to cultivate cultures of liberation and justice will change the way we do our youth work. This training is Part 2 of our 2022 training “Breaking the Cycle of White Supremacy Culture in Youth Work.”
