EDI XII: A 12-part series to help estates and facilities colleagues get up to speed on their equality, diversity and inclusion professional practice
Session 12: Being Anti-Racist: from conversation to action
Time: 12pm - 1pm
Being Anti-racist takes courage and action. It is about visibly challenging discrimination and engaging in conversations that will lead to action and change. This webinar will focus on how to move your antiracist efforts from conversation to action. With a focus on the workspace, we will look at what Anti-racism looks, sounds and feels like in practice, and explore actions that organisations and individuals can take to become antiracist.
We will explore:
• Creating safe spaces: what it takes to create a safe space where conversations and action can happen.
• Addressing language and understanding microaggressions – understanding what race-related microaggressions are and how they have an impact on individuals and culture. We will explore practical ways to challenge microaggressions.
• Unconscious bias: examples of how biases create barriers for ethnic minority groups at work, and what can be done at individual and team level to help mitigate these.
• Anti-racist allyship: understanding individual accountability and identifying key actions to actively contribute to change.
