SUMMARY:Implicit Bias Training--THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
DESCRIPTION:Rev. Kathleen Weber\, District Superintendent for the Crest to Coast District and the Crest to Coast Missional District invite you to attend: \nImplicit Bias Training \nThe Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity defines Implicit bias as the attitudes or stereotypes that affect our understanding\, actions\, and decisions in an unconscious manner. In this workshop that meets the PNW quadrennial cultural competency training requirement for clergy\, we will spend time understanding and examining the implicit bias that we carry. The day will be divided into three areas of exploration: 1) personal reflection around race\, and to a lesser degree class\, lens and background; 2)historical events\, policies\, etc. that determined the trajectory of race and class in our nation and make connections to current day status quo; and 3) organization and person next steps and commitments. There will be time for individual reflection\, small group time\, whole group sharing and another solo reflection time to integrate new learnings on our own. \n\nAnita Garcia Morales\nMeet Your Presenter \nAnita Garcia Morales grew up in a migrant farm worker family in Eastern Washington. She served Seattle Public Schools for 35 years\, with the first 22 as a classroom teacher. When she retired in 2016\, Anita was an Equity & Race Relations Specialist and co-designed and co-facilitated racial equity training for all levels of district staff. \nNow an independent consultant\, Anita continues this work with organizations looking to make systemic change. Anita is a Senior Trainer with Class Action\, a non-profit whose mission is to inspire action to end classism (www.classism.org).
