College Educators Workshop Presented by Eddie Moore Jr., PhD

Academic institutions provide a common space for people across lines of race, ethnicity and nationality to examine and discuss the most pressing issues impacting the country. Those within educational communities — faculty, staff, and students — are often affected by the state of the nation, which influences their personal, professional and educational interactions.

Through interactive discussion and activities, participants will:

• Gain a fuller understanding of racism, bias, privilege and power in America
• Examine how these systems manifest in the structure and culture of colleges and universities and the implications on campus communities
• Discover ways to incorporate current events into class discussions and encourage critical thinking around these issues
• Learn ways to empower colleagues and students by acknowledging and validating their experiences
