“Dismantling Racism from the Inside Out.” The idea is deceptively simple and strongly rooted in Jewish tradition. To change society, individuals must first address their own attitudes, biases and inner lives. Easy to say, much harder to carry out. With funding from the Wabash Center, Rabbi Sandra Lawson and Rabbi Alex Weissman decided to try this approach at the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College, which is committed to anti-racism. Working with faculty, Lawson and Weissman led a year-long process grounded in mussar (Jewish ethical practice.) The work was set to begin in earnest on Oct. 17, 2023. In this episode, Weissman and Lawson talk about how the attacks of Oct. 7 and subsequent war cast a shadow over the project but ultimately led to some important insights about how racism has impact Jewish institutions. They also address why, in an age of skyrocketing antisemitism, it's as important as ever for Jewish communities to address racism. Theme song, “Ilu Finu” by Rabbi Miriam Margles.

Conflict is inevitable and Lynne talks about how she helps people engage in constructive conflict, instead of running from it. In this conversation the focus is on conflict in marriage, and in the workplace, between any two people and specifically interracial couples. Lynne recommends people engage in conversations with those they are in conflict with, aiming to be vulnerable and staying open to listening. She describes her program, On the Matter of Race, which was created to teach white people about racism and how to dismantle it. The program was inspired by a request from two white women who wanted to understand the experiences of people of color, and how to be effective allies. Lynne clearly articulates the need for white people to understand their role in addressing and dismantling racism and has devoted her life to helping make that happen, at both the personal and societal levels.

Program Notes It was my sincere privilege to recently share a conversation with Rev. Dr. Terrlyn Curry Avery as she addressed many aspects of dismantling racism. She speaks to audiences worldwide about woman's journey from self-expression to self-empowerment. Acknowledging the people who came before her and on whose shoulder's she now sits, Dr Avery offered her understanding of the honor of being bestowed this grace. The listener will be both inspired and fascinated by Dr Avery's journey from being raised in a close-knit community in the deep south to leading courageous conversations about race. I invite you to tune into a compelling call to individual action as Dr Avery shares her journey of later being called into the ministry where she began addressing wounds of religion, until the moment when the world watched the horrifying murder of George Floyd. Humble yet powerful, graceful yet unwavering, Dr Avery's reveals ways we can each engage in this essential work, and reminds us that every small action counts.   BIO Rev.

In this final episode of the mini-series with Rev. Dr. Anthony Scott, we talk about dismantling racism using the F.E.A.R.S framework. We dive deep into the ways that white people can do this much needed work with authenticity.

In this special book club episode, guest host Diana Oestreich speaks with author Osheta Moore on her book Dear White Peacemakers.   "Dear White Peacemakers is a breakup letter to division, a love letter to God's beloved community, and an eviction notice to the violent powers that have sustained racism for centuries.   Race is one of the hardest topics to discuss in America. Many white Christians avoid talking about it altogether. But a commitment to peacemaking requires white people to step out of their comfort and privilege and into the work of anti-racism. Dear White Peacemakers is an invitation to white Christians to come to the table and join this hard work and holy calling. Rooted in the life, ministry, and teachings of Jesus, this book is a challenging call to transform white shame, fragility, saviorism, and privilege, in order to work together to build the Beloved Community as anti-racism peacemakers.   Written in the wake of George Floyd's death, Dear White Peacemakers draws on the Sermon on the Mount, Spirituals, and personal stories from author Osheta Moore's work as a pastor in St. Paul, Minnesota. Enter into this story of shalom and join in the urgent work of anti-racism peacemaking."

It was demanded of many of us, by culture in the United States, and Christian culture to take responsibility for the emotional, physical, and metaphysical needs or everyone around us and, maybe even, everyone in the world.  Today I'm talking about overburdening with responsibility, what it looks like, why we're like this, and how to be with ourselves within all of it.  What are you actually responsible for?     From today's episode:  Tema Okun's Dismantling Racism, Characteristics of White Supremacist Culture: https://www.dismantlingracism.org/uploads/4/3/5/7/43579015/okun_-_white_sup_culture.pdf Join the email list: https://portal.carinhuebner.com/public/form/view/62a7a9056cfde7fd9ad9d018 Join Carin's FREE Facebook group: https://portal.carinhuebner.com/public/form/view/63223d6e3d298d2c64e6abfa Schedule a discovery call with me to discern what's right for your journey: https://portal.carinhuebner.com/public/appointment-scheduler/62a7a82fbca2763010f61eaf/schedule

As the Province asks for the public's help to define types of discrimination for its equity and anti-racism strategy, NDP MLA Suzy Hansen reflects on the Dismantling Racism and Hate Act and why she was disappointed when it passed this spring.

What if your intuition guided you to move across the country, give-up your private practice and do so without knowing exactly where you were going to land and work?  Or what if it told you to buy a house sight unseen—like not even having seen a picture of it—would you?  Well, you would if you were in touch with your intuition and knew it for the powerful and life affirming source that it is.  That's exactly what my guest Michelle Cassandra Johnson did—and doing so reshaped her life in amazing ways she couldn't have imagined. Michelle and I talk making intuitive decisions, big and little, as well as daily rituals and practices that make this social just warrior and anti-racism teacher's intuition clear rather than cloudy.  All that on today's Own Your Intuition Show.SHOW NOTES:Michelle C.

The audience will learn about ancient principles that promote self-knowledge, the foundation of meaningful equity work. Listeners will gain insight and tools for engaging in the spiritual work required to dismantle systematic oppression. Race is a social construct. To challenge it, we need to study the ways in which it has impacted our lives as well as develop the capacity to interrupt its effects internally and systemically. The current form of the construct of race is at best 500-600 years old, while our humanity is several hundreds of thousands, even millions of years old, and therefore it is a relatively newer extension of the shadow aspect of the self. ⁣ ⁣Our host Rev. Dr. TLC welcomes the founder of LifeGuardian Worldwide, Courtlandt Butts. LifeGuardian's approach to JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion) work is based on ancient (minimum 6000 years BCE) Kemetic concepts that include three main pillars; Know Thyself; Be obsessed with distinguishing knowledge from foolishness; to Build for Eternity. Rev. Dr. TLC and Courtlandt will discuss the benefits of using a spiritual, primordial approach when entering justice work. Tune in for this important conversation at TalkRadio.nyc or watch the Livestream by Clicking Here.Show NotesSegment 1Rev. Dr. TLC kicks off the show with a guided meditation. She invites her listeners to partake in an exercise where they look in the mirror and look at themselves. Rev. Dr. TLC asks what do you see? To heal, we must take a deep look at ourselves. She introduces her guest Courtlandt Butts. Rev. Dr. TLC shares his background and accolades before welcoming him on the show. Courtlandt talks about his experience in spiritual work with Rev. Dr. TLC.Segment 2In Rev Dr. TLC's book, Dismantling Racism, she writes about learning your purpose. She asks Courtandt to speak on his experience in finding his purpose. Cortlandt shares that he was at a crossroads when he would give his speeches at school. He wasn't able to discuss his spiritual side, which was such a huge part of his journey. Courtlandt says he was able to flourish when he gave himself permission to fully embrace his spirituality. Rev. Dr. TLC asks Courtlandt what his experience was in holding workshops that focused on spirituality. She also points out that in order to do the work around racial equity, we must fully commit ourselves.Segment 3Rev. Dr. TLC and Courtlandt continue to discuss the importance of knowing yourself. Courtland speaks on an exercise that he practices with his colleagues where you are stripped from social constructs. He finds that they tend to struggle with this exercise. Courtlandt also adds that people who do work on racial equity can weaponize the tools that they've learned. Rev. Dr. TLC asks Courtlandt if the ill intent comes from a conscious place. Courtandlt says it's how much you know your inner self before learning the tools for dismantling racism.Segment 4Courtandlt does executive coaching, where he trains people who are already immersed in the work of dismantling racism. He is there to guide them and help them dive deeper into themselves. Courtandlt says the world's major problems are apathy, selfishness, and greed. In order to solve those problems, the world will need a cultural and spiritual revolution. LifeGuardian can begin the steps in fixing the problem with their unique approach to JEDI.

In this episode of Room to Grow, Curtis and Joanie welcome Juliana Tapper, Math Intervention Specialist and Founder of CollaboratEd Consulting. We start by apologizing for mispronouncing Juliana's last name when she is introduced at the start of the podcast! Please note that her last name is Tapper, rather than Trapper. We are so sorry, Juliana! Juliana brings her experience teaching and supporting middle and high school math teachers and math interventionists to help us consider ways to break what she calls the “struggle stigma” in math class. She grounds our conversation with powerful results from research around math anxiety, which suggest that math anxiety activates the same fear centers in the brain as seeing a snake! When teachers use this understanding, we can create more effective responses to students who are experiencing math anxiety in our classes.Along with Juliana, your hosts discuss the importance of establishing a classroom culture that makes space all the “mathematical baggage” that students might bring with them. Providing the opportunity to talk about past experiences, positive and negative, allows students to understand that our classroom is a safe and welcoming place, where struggle becomes a normal and expected part of the learning process. Juliana has some practical tips for using instructional protocols with no math to build that classroom culture. She also shares how she established participation as an expectation rather than an option, and how those expectations along with appropriate scaffolds create small successes for students to build on.We know you'll walk away with some great ideas that will help you better reach more students in your classroom.We encourage you to explore these resources, mentioned and referenced in this episode:Juliana's website with resources and much more information about supporting students in math www.Collaboratedconsulting.org, or email Juliana directly at juliana@collaboratedconsulting.org.The youcubed® article Valuing Difference and Growth Juliana refers to the findings in this paper about how math anxiety lights up the same centers of the brain as physical fear such as seeing a snake.Juliana mentioned this The Dismantling Racism in Mathematics Instruction Course from Student Achievement Partners; the third course of the series will be available in the fall and you can take it without having taken the first two.Juliana suggested this Good Groupwork activity for helping to build a classroom culture that supports all students' learning from youcubed.®Did you enjoy this episode of Room to Grow?

Can we use spiritual awareness to dismantle racism? Put another way … How can we tap into our own sacred intelligence to empower change in the world? This week on the ManKind Podcast I'm with Rev. Dr. Terrlyn Curry Avery, the Reverend Dr. TLC. Regardless of your belief or non-belief this podcast might help you connect to a deeper sense of who you are as a motivated and passionate advocate for change … in all kinds of environments. Rev. Dr. TLC is the author of two books. Today we're talking about her newest book, ""What's it like to be a Black Woman Pastor in the (mostly white) Presbyterian Church? What kinds of transformations are possible when we get willing to set aside old ways of seeing and hearing the world and living from a sacred purpose. There are three pillars in Sacred Intelligence. Sacred Motive, Self-ish Mindset, and Shared Movement.   In this podcast we dive into the journey of learning about our sacred intelligence and bringing it forward into the world. There are ways to make a difference.

When Jill's team reached out about being on Dancing in the Discomfort Zone Podcast, a bunch of the talking points made me uncomfortable, so I knew she was perfect!  · Jill has been breaking down assumptions and healing rifts for more than 30 years. · Her first book was Whores and Other Feminists, (https://www.amazon.com/Whores-Other-Feminists-Jill-Nagle/dp/0415918227) a collection of writings by feminists in the sex industry. · She is active in a number of online communities and has been published or reviewed more than 150 times in places like American Book Review, Bust, Bitch, and The Women's Review of Books.For the last two years, she has been running workshops and training programs for white people to take greater leadership around ending racism, in many cases, starting with a conversation with another white person — a surprisingly hard step for most of us.Jill speaks to these issues “from the inside out,” meaning that she uses a trauma-informed approach from her years as a somatic (body-based) counselor to help people engage these issues with their hearts and bodies, not just their heads. She sees this as the only way to make true change.We also talked about a bunch of other resources.  Here are those links.White Fragility book  https://www.amazon.com/White-Fragility-People-About-Racism/dp/0807047414Jacob Holdt “American Pictures”  http://www.american-pictures.com/gallery/Marshall Rosenberg, “Nonviolent Communication”  https://www.amazon.com/Nonviolent-Communication-audiobook/dp/B00TKMBJKE/ref=sr_1_2?crid=32NSYZ46QZI2I&keywords=nonviolent+communication+rosenberg&qid=1658769084&s=audible&sprefix=nonviolent%2Caudible%2C91&sr=1-2Jonathan Metzler “Dying of Whiteness”  https://www.amazon.com/Dying-of-Whiteness-audiobook/dp/B07PYLTPDF/ref=sr_1_1?gclid=Cj0KCQjw_viWBhD8ARIsAH1mCd6JwYR6pR-hc0WCpv_e1xpZ8LejXhFyj7ZVD2jTxFwLQ7cFAUVffbEaAqdqEALw_wcB&hvadid=329721535873&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9012125&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=1984828312528668286&hvtargid=kwd-656717422960&hydadcr=15522_10340746&keywords=the+dying+of+whiteness&qid=1658769064&sr=8-1

In this episode, I had the pleasure of welcoming back Dr. Terrlyn Curry Avery to talk about anti-racism. In our first discussion, we explored her work in helping heal religious trauma, which is also intersectional to racism and a by-product of patriarchy. Today we dove into her book Dismantling Racism from the Inside Out, and how these times invite us to reckon with our internal bias and require us to untangle the lies of us and them, black or white, and other corrupt programs of patriarchy. Some of the topics we discussed included: * When did Terrlyn first encounter racism? * Understand micro-aggression and its impact. * What are implicit and unconscious biases, and how do they show up in our lives? * The murder of George Floyd became a catalyst for a new explosion of awakening to racism worldwide. * Racism is not a “trend.” * How can we activate this work in our lives and grow our capacity to dismantle racism? * Looking at our own internal “stuff” is hard and necessary * What is Sacred Intelligence, and how can we access it? Rev. Dr. (TLC) is the creator of Pastology, the cutting-edge field that focuses on the synergy between pastoring and psychology. She holds a Ph.D. from Hofstra University and a Masters of Divinity from Yale University. She calls herself a pastologist (licensed psychologist and ordained minister) and is a transformational leader, coach, speaker, author and retreat leader. Rev. Dr. TLC has a unique approach to healing, transformation, and manifestation. She places emphasis on the journey toward sacred intelligence: the ability to tap into one's internal source in order to move toward intelligent choices. Those choices are intended to honor the Sacred and help the individual manifest their greatness, while simultaneously embracing the humanity of those around them. Rev. Dr. TLC works with highly influential and committed leaders who need spiritual, life, or career coaching as they transform the world by creating a legacy of service, prosperity, and greatness.

Minority ethnic teachers are still under-represented in all lanes of education, routes into education lack focused training on structural racism and unconscious bias, and exclusion rates for mixed white and black Caribbean boys continue to be disproportionally higher than that of white British boys. The education system in Britain needs drastic change.With experience both as a black teacher and a black student, Jeffrey Boakye's journey through education has been one of exploration, from the outside looking in. Reflecting on what he has observed and learned, Jeffrey will discuss the habits, presumptions, silences, and distortions that underpin British education and offer his thoughts on the change that is urgently needed. #RSAeducationBecome an RSA Events sponsor: https://utm.guru/ueembDonate to The RSA: https://utm.guru/udNNBFollow RSA Events on Instagram: https://instagram.com/rsa_events/Follow the RSA on Twitter: https://twitter.com/RSAEventsLike RSA Events on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rsaeventsoff...

The audience will learn from an expert about the physics of change and how they can potentially use it to become agents of awakening in the journey to embrace differences and dismantle racism. Racism and its complexities are continuously unfolding and being deciphered. Such a large-scale and nuanced cultural phenomenon needs to be analyzed from all possible angles if we wish to dismantle the systems that it dominates. The study of the infinite world of physics has uncovered and solved countless scientific problems. Is there a way it can be applied to the concept of racism, and used to eradicate it? Join Rev. Dr. TLC and her guest, applied physics expert, Jennifer Hough! They will examine the physics behind the change, contrast, action, and awakening. Can our differences catalyze permanent positive change? How can we use physics to achieve quantum leap results in the journey of dismantling racism? WEBSITE - www.thewideawakening.com FB - https://www.facebook.com/WideAwakening/Tune in for this important conversation at TalkRadio.nyc or watch the Facebook Livestream by Clicking Here. Segment 1Rev.

Dr. TLC and Jennifer talk about preparing yourself for those who are against your perspective and allowing yourself to have an open mind and heart. Before the break, Jennifer begins to talk about the foundational purpose of physics that connects to our spirituality. She explains how our reality is all tied together by love and gravity. Jennifer gives a visual explanation of the double slit experiment that shows us how we can lead with our biases and possibly fall in line to fit in with society, which can perpetuate the cycle of racism. Segment 3Coming back from the break, Rev. Dr. TLC and Jennifer continue to talk about the double slit experiment and its connection to spirituality. Jennifer begins to talk about the importance of our mindset and how we can't live in fear.

Dr. TLC and Jennifer talk about the importance of an evidence journal and how it can help you visualize change. Segment 4In the last segment, Rev. Dr. TLC and Jennifer talk about the negative effects of living in fear and shame. Fear becomes the solution to staying stagnant and not living out our full potential.

Airing originally on February 11, 2021 on WYXR 91.7 FM in Memphis, TN, this episode of Faithfully Memphis features Bishop Phoebe Roaf in conversation with Dr. Catherine Meeks, Executive Director of the Absalom Jones Center for Racial Healing, whose mission is to provide tools and experiences that allow faith communities – and the larger community of individuals – to engage in dismantling racism through education, prayer, dialogue, pilgrimage, and spiritual formation. Prior to the center's opening, Dr. Meeks she chaired its precursor, Beloved Community: Commission for Dismantling Racism for the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta. A sought-after teacher and workshop leader, Catherine brings four decades of experience to the work of transforming the dismantling racism work in Atlanta. The core of her work has been with people who have been marginalized because of economic status, race, gender or physical ability as they pursue liberation, justice and access to resources that can help lead them to health, wellness and a more abundant life. This work grows out of her understanding of her call to the vocation of teacher as well as her realization that all of humanity is one family which God desires to unite.

The issue of equity is baked into the history of Oak Park, Illinois. In the 1960s, neighborhoods around Oak Park faced "white flight" and resegregation when they attempted to integrate. But in 1968, the city passed a fair housing ordinance, outlawing discrimination in the housing market. The result, 50 years later, is an extremely diverse community, socially, economically, and racially. Its schools—including Oak Park Elementary School District 97—are no different. But diversity doesn't always mean equity.Enter Dr. Carol Kelley, who has spent her career in education making sure every child gets a quality education. In this episode, we talk with Dr. Kelley about the changes she's made in Oak Park to promote a more equitable, anti-racist culture in the district.Dr. Carol Kelley (@drKforequity)Oak Park Elementary School District 97 (@OakPark97)To learn more about Dr. Kelley's work on equity at Oak Park 97, visit SchoolCEO.com/Kelley.Subscribe to SchoolCEO at SchoolCEO.com for more advice, stories, and strategies for leading your schools.
