LeaderShift and Angela Ma Brown have worked together in the past; we are grateful to Angela for offering two anti-racism workshops this July 2020 - for church leaders and staff, and members who are re-committing to dismantling racism in the church.

Break the Silence: The Power of Active Witnessing
3 Hour Workshop

Have you ever witnessed a racist incident but didn’t know what to say or do and felt conflicted and regretful about not responding? This workshop will help participants develop their “response-ability” or readiness to respond to such incidents.   

The first part of the session engages participants in experiential learning activities and an understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of prejudice, discrimination and oppression. The second part involves learning a wide range of verbal and behavioral responses when someone is being victimized by an offensive and disrespectful remark or inequitable treatment.   

Participants will shift from passive bystanders to active witnesses and will feel more equipped and empowered to respond to racism on an individual basis. Together, we can break the silence and make an ethical commitment to collectively fight prejudice, discrimination and oppression of any form in society.
