We are creating space for white-identifying students who want to be in community to learn, challenge one another, and hold each other accountable to shift from “I'm not a racist” to truly understanding what it means to be anti-racist in thought and practice. Whether you are just beginning your journey to become anti-racist or are well-practiced and disciplined at interrupting the script of white supremacy, you are welcome and encouraged to participate.
This workspace will be a discussion about the history of slavery in the United States. Please try to watch the 2016 documentary 13th on YouTube prior to the event if you are able to: https://youtu.be/krfcq5pF8u8.
Please consider registering for upcoming workspaces that will all focus on different topics/themes within anti-racist work as a white-identifying student. You must register on Engage for each individual event in order to receive the zoom links/and any associated materials/resources.
If you have any questions, concerns, or requests for accommodations, please email selebiary@ithaca.edu.
