This group explores historical and current systemic\, structural and interpersonal racism. In this group\, we: \n-Examine white fragility and how it shows up personally and institutionally\n-Explore what it means to be actively anti-racist and how to become an ally and co-conspirator\n-Provide a space to struggle and grapple with your own internalized racism \nRacial caucuses can provide “opportunities for those who share a common identity to meet separately to gather\, connect\, and learn.” Often\, “caucusing can be a valuable component of an organization’s broader racial justice and equity and inclusion efforts\,” including time in separate caucuses and time together in a multi-racial community. ALF is also continuing and deepening the work of bringing people together to build understanding and relationships across differences. \nIf you have any questions regarding this learning circle\, contact Shiloh Ballard (Class XXVII).

In just the last four years\, we’ve overhauled our Fellows program reading\, continued to build on Class and organizational diversity at all levels\, and gone on deep journeys with now three CEO Diversity\, Inclusion\, Equity and Liberation cohorts. We are getting smarter together so that we may lead better. \nALF’s work around racial equity continues to evolve. Thanks to a generous Leadership Circle gift from Silver Lake\, ALF will be expanding our work of facilitating groups and evolving curriculum and networks to move the needle on racial equity. \nAs an inclusive organization looking to access the wisdom of the network\, We want to hear from you. \nWhile some of you have shared how ALF can help in this arena\, we want to invite additional input from the Senior Fellows network as we create an action plan for the next twelve months. We want to know how ALF might be able to assist in your learning journey and/or your work as it relates to racial justice\, inclusion\, and equity. \n***Zoom meeting link will be shared just prior to the event*** URL:https://www.alfsv.org/event/alf-focus-group-deepening-the-work-around-race-equity/ LOCATION:United States CATEGORIES:Race & Equity,Virtual ATTACH;FMTTYPE=: END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
