What does bold and brave anti-racist relational work look like without that term?  For faculty and staff who hold anti-racist values but may be navigating tricky political climates, work environments, and relationships, this writing workshop is a space of practical exploration. Framed by the inclusivity of the well-embraced notion of the “common good,” this workshop utilizes writing prompts adapted from the Principles for Anti-Racist Community Engagement and the Framework for Civic Learning through a Lens of Racial Equity to cultivate shared responsibility for greater well-being.
