Planning to disrupt institutional racism workshops

This workshop nurtures critical reflective practice but also focusses on collective action. It uses structural analysis to unpack the drives of institutional racism. It exposes how racism operates as a system of power to disadvantage one group and advantage another while emphasising the intersectoral impacts of racism and explores language around racism.

This workshop deliberately nurtures critical thinking and collaboration as learners “learn by doing” mapping racism within a particular setting. Antiracism strategies are identified to address these identified sites of racism. The workshop concludes by strategizing how to build appropriate infrastructure to sustain antiracism momentum. 

Poetry, song and whakataukī are weaved through this embodied learning experience. 

Alumni from this workshop will be able to:

• Collaboratively design a tailored antiracism strategy.

• Actively reflect on their own agency and strategic contributions to antiracism
