Description:

Racism, at its most basic level, is a lens though which people interpret, naturalize, and reproduce inequality. We all struggle to truly see one another due to the conditioning and trauma that has been imposed upon us, which becomes the breeding ground for implicit bias and racial disconnection. Racism is not a “white” issue it is a systematic/structural issue designed to keep in place white cultural dominance. This system has caused harm to us all.  What is in us will come out, unintentionally or intentionally, because The Body Keeps the Score.

Objectives:

Participants will:

  • Learn how trauma can invade the body and skew perception.
  • Have an increased awareness of how unconscious or unspoken racism compromise discussions and outcomes
This course meets the Washington State Health Equity Requirement.
