Participants will explore what it means to develop your anti-bias anti-racist (ABAR) lens, and apply it to working with youth. We will look at examples of ABAR lessons and units of study across disciplines in a range of grade levels, and discuss strategies to create a long-lasting, sustainable practice.
Talking about race, racism, and other social identities and injustices can be challenging conversations with even our closest friends and family.
