Building racial equity practices requires ongoing learning and self-reflection. No matter where you are in your understanding of systemic racism, Facing Race has several programming options for you! If you want to learn how to effectively address structural racism and promote racial equity, you can start by attending our foundational workshop, Building Racial Equity (BRE). If you’ve already completed BRE, take it a step further with our Facilitating for Racial Equity (FRE) training, where you can immediately put to practice what you’ve learned. Be sure to kick-off your Facing Race experience with either of these two workshops from our Racial Equity Training Series. Reserve your spot today! https://bit.ly/FR24PreCons
