Conference Workshop: “More is Required! How White People Can More Deeply Be In the Struggle for Racial Justice on Our Campuses”

June 2, 2017 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am

Dr. Hackman will be offering a 90-minute concurrent workshop session at the 2017 National Conference on Race and Ethnicity in Higher Education.

Workshop Description:

If ever there was a year where we honestly called White folks more deeply into racial justice work, this is clearly it. This session explores the many reasons White people step away from racial justice work (often just when it is most critical for them to stay), and suggests an assortment of concrete actions White folks can take to more deeply commit to the struggle for racial justice. Exploring the intersections of “mind/body/heart” (disposition) with “race/racism/whiteness” (content) and “learn / integrate / implement” (process), this session offers participants a framework for exploring their own challenges with RJ work across the racial identity spectrum. The focus on White folks doing more is not meant to center Whiteness, and thereby reinforce its power, but rather to shed light on Whiteness so as to make our campuses places where White faculty, students, administrators and community members more effectively show up for racial justice. Participants will leave with a greater understanding of the conceptual dynamics of Whiteness as well as specific and actionable items for their ongoing consideration. The session is a mix of content delivery and participant discussion, so please come ready to engage. The universal and incredibly pressing nature of this content makes this workshop beneficial for faculty, staff, and administrators as well as students.
