SPEAKER SERIES

Please join us February 12th for the first of many...

“STUDENTS ARE NOT THE PROBLEM IN OUR SCHOOLS, THEY ARE THE POTENTIAL”

Keynote Speaker: Sydney Johnson

"How can I live as my soul when I am bound by the hatred of my skin?" For minority communities, that question is the dilemma of their existence. We live in a society that constantly degrades one’s identity by upholding prejudice assumptions about their skin color. Often, society tries to tell us who we are and what we’re not because of it. In this keynote, we will be going on a journey of affirmations to reclaim ourselves by identifying what we were wrongly taught. Through concepts on racial clarity, colorism, stereotypes, and more, this keynote is a guide to rediscover the voice that was silenced by societal expectations.

Friday, February 12 from 5pm - 6pm (PST)

Sydney Johnson, 2019 National Summit For Courageous Conversation™ Keynote Speaker

From a young age, Sydney Johnson made a promise to fight for those who are underrepresented and underserved. Currently a sophomore at UCLA, she has made it her mission to create opportunities for students to be leaders of change. With goals of being a district attorney, Sydney hopes to provide justice and peace for citizens who are overlooked.

CRITICAL RACE THEORY/EXECUTIVE ORDER COMING & GOING.


Led by Glenn Singleton (Founder & CEO of Courageous Conversation™)


Based upon the understanding that race and racism are the product of social construction and power relations, Critical Race Theory (CRT) is an activist body of scholarship that seeks to explore and challenge the prevalence of racial inequality in society, examining the ways in which racial inequality is maintained and normalized.


On September 22, 2020, the 45th President of the United States of America issued Executive Order 13950, “Combating Race and Sex Stereotyping," which forbids federal employees' participation in “diversity and inclusion" training, prohibits their study of CRT, and bans the use of federal funds to pay for such activities.


In this 2-hour seminar, participants will engage in a Courageous Conversation™, exploring the advance and establishment of the policies of privilege and power in our republic through a lens of racial equity and will examine what the rise, reign, and removal of America's 45th President reveals about the nation. 


Duration: 120 min.


BOOK STUDY: Courageous Conversations About Race

Led by Glenn Singleton, Author 

In his groundbreaking work, Courageous Conversations About Race, Glenn Singleton, Founder & CEO of Courageous Conversation™, explains why learning to talk about race is critical to our nation's healing and future success. Glenn’s work demonstrates how doing so is much less painful, and not half as risky as we imagine.

 

Usually those committed to learning are relegated to studying third hand the works of masters, often long gone. Students are subjected to the limitations of teachers and scholars who interpret a text conceived of and penned by someone else. 

 

In this rare four-part series, those exploring racial equity transformation will be guided through the CCAR text, by its creator and author, accompanied by our Courageous Conversation™ Team. Participants will receive not only an interpretation, but an education on the meaning and application of the text, directly from Glenn Singleton and the Courageous Conversation™ Team.

 

Spaces are limited for this rare event. Sign up quickly. 

 

Part I: February 4 @ 3pm - 4:30pm PST

Part II: February 11 @ 3pm - 4:30pm PST

Part III: February 18 @ 3pm - 4:30pm PST

Part IV: February 25 @ 3pm - 4:30pm PST

*Price covers all four parts, however, attendance is not required for all.
