About the event
presented by Morris H. Ervin, Jr
Have you ever been afraid to talk about race, racism, or the systems of policing in America? Or have tried and it hasn’t gone as well as you would have liked?
Please join us to expand and deepen your conversations around systemic and interpersonal racism. We will be using and integrating the consciousness of Nonviolent Communication (NVC), a process/language designed to create connection and natural giving from the heart. The structure of the class will be interactive and engaging.
Participants will be able to:
● Name systems that are created to systematically meet the needs of one group at the expense of the other. (Criminalization of Black Men) (Power Dynamics)
● Incorporate observations, feelings, needs, and request/that serve as a skillful way to unpack the naming of an unjust system from a connected, respected, and dignified place
