Engage Staff on Issues of Race Through Book Study
Race affects every facet of life in America today, including our educational practice. To reduce the negative impact on students and staff of color, and to increase awareness of white racial identity, it is imperative that white educators examine their racial insulation, biases and attitudes. Learn how to develop and facilitate a book study, including norm setting, group size and composition, session length, and small-group discussion guidelines and prompts. The session examples will come from a book study based on “White Fragility,” authored by Robin DiAngelo. Download accompanying handouts here.
