Comments
I have attended a lot
of trainings and workshops during my career and I must admit that I am now
often "bored" or not "challenged" during some
trainings/workshops. I often feel as if I have perhaps "wasted"
my time because I take away no new information and or no new ideas to
enhance my existing methods of practice or knowledge base. When I
registered for the Anti-Racism workshop I did believe that I would again
leave a training with no new information and let me tell you right away
that the assumption I made was 100% wrong. After about 15 minutes I
realized that the Anti-Racism training had already impacted me and my mind
was racing with anticipation of what was to come during the next couple of
hours. I saw the awareness level grow in the room minute by minute, and
also the anxiety level, which was wonderful to experience and observe.
This is a training
that everyone will benefit from whether they want to or not. The format of
your curriculum, especially the application pieces, forces the
participants to think and encourages dialogue. For many it may have been
the first time that they truly realized and discussed in a open diverse
forum that they had prejudices, and for others it may have been the first
time that they realized how prejudices truly impact people of color.
I look forward to
attending the two and a half day training in May 2008. Thank you so much for
developing and hosting this training.
