Event Information
Description
This event is presented jointly by Coming to the Table and University of Denver Conflict Resolution Institute
Racism Skeptics and Empathy; An Innovative Approach White Allies Can Use to Change Hearts and Minds
Do you struggle as a white person to respond in social or work situations when someone makes a racist comment or questions the reality of racism?
Many white people are at sea in these situations. We need tangible tools and skills to participate in healthy, productive, and effective dialogue with racism skeptics.
Scientific evidence shows that empathy-based dialogues can change adults’ minds.
Participate in this vital conversation! Learn how to use empathy, active listening and relating skills in conversations about racism in a comfortable workshop setting.
This workshop was developed and is facilitated by David Campt, PhD., nationally known African-American author and lecturer. David works in the areas of community engagement, conflict resolution, inclusion, and equity. His clients have included large corporations, the White House, the US Military, and nonprofits. He is known as The Dialogue Guy. You can learn more about him and this work at www.whiteallytoolkit.com.
