Chan Zuckerberg Initiative: The Groundwater Approach: Building A Practical Understanding of Structural Racism

Chan Zuckerberg Initiative: The Groundwater Approach: Building A Practical Understanding of Structural Racism

The Groundwater Approach is an introduction to Racial Equity. In this lively and participatory presentation, Racial Equity Institute organizers will use stories and data to present a perspective that racism is fundamentally structural in nature. By examining characteristics of modern-day racial inequity, the presentation introduces participants to an analysis that most find immediately useful and relevant. This session will:

  • Introduce you to the basic principles of Racial Equity

  • Give you data and tools to implement Racial Equity in your day-to-day work

  • Help you learn skills to identify and intervene when inequity is present
