The Personal Work of Racial Justice

The Personal Work of Racial Justice is a workshop for teachers, leaders, activists, and anyone interested in deepening their racial equity and racial justice practice. The workshop is designed to clarify and support the internal personal work we need to do to thoughtfully and gracefully live into our commitment to racial justice. Tema Okun and Krista Robinson-Lyles have designed and will facilitate this workshop.

This workshop is for you if you want to:

  • engage in deep reflection about our personal commitment to racial justice and equity and how we engage our whole being into that commitment;

  • draw from somatic practices, including working with the breath, silence, journaling, guided visualization, and music;

  • meet and collaborate in small and large group formats;

  • translate reflection into action;

  • deepen our individual and collective understanding of how we care for ourselves and each other as we work for racial justice.

  • participate in a workshop designed to support the internal personal work we need to do in order to live into our commitment to racial justice.
