Undoing Racism Training - Application
The Grunin Foundation has partnered with The People’s Institute for Survival and Beyond to offer up to 50 individuals (total) the opportunity to participate in The People’s Institute signature workshop, Undoing Racism®/Community Organizing. Participants will experience a humanistic process for laying a foundation to explore how we have been racialized, socialized, and conditioned to think about race and racism.
This intensive, interactive process challenges participants to analyze themselves first, then the structures of power and privilege that hinder social equity and prepares them to be effective organizers for justice.
We first analyze class, power and institutional/individual relationships to and within communities. As power is analyzed, we will explore how people play a role in maintaining the current disparate racial outcomes that every system and institution produces.
This is a 3-day commitment (10am-4pm).
As of 7-10, there is only one option left for participation: Toms River, NJ in-person session (Tuesday, July 25 through Thursday, July 27).
You are required to make a commitment to attending all three full days if you are selected. Due to the limited seats, we will have a brief application process. Applications will be taken on a rolling basis; submitting an application does not guarantee your seat, we will reach out soon.
