Elevate Education: JEDI Foundations
Each session in this empowering series allows for entry points for learners new to the concepts of anti-racism and anti-oppression work and also offers deeper analysis for those familiar with these terms and realities. The series covers equity, diversity, and inclusion language and the core concepts of racism, anti-racism, White supremacy, colonialism, privilege, oppression, and discrimination. We then move on to awareness, allyship, justice, solidarity, and reconciliation. The sessions are engaging and interactive with opportunities for small and large group sharing as well as the use of videos, polls, surveys, online games, and interactive handouts.
