[Nikea Davis]

*/*All are encouraged to attend*
/*

*/White Privilege/**
Monday, November 5
5 to 7 p.m.
Robert Ferst Center for the Arts, Richard's Gallery*

Kendall Clark defines white privilege as a right, advantage, or immunity 
granted to or enjoyed by white persons beyond the common advantage of 
all others. Participants will learn about white privilege and its 
systemic impact on partnerships, experience and learn the art of 
dialogue verses conversation, and talk about their emotions and offer 
collaborative recommendations regarding white privilege. This group is 
encouraged for white members of our community.* Facilitated by Len 
Rothman, Diversity coach.

*/Internalized Oppression/**
Monday, November 5
5 to 7 p.m.
Robert Ferst Center for the Arts, Westbrook Gallery*

When we think of prejudice reduction work, we think of the stereotypes 
we have about other groups. But, one of the most painful results of 
discrimination is that we also end up internalizing many of these 
stereotypes and taking them out against members of our own group. The 
impact of Internalized Oppression will be explored. This group is 
encouraged for persons of color.* Facilitated by Stephanie Ray, 
associate dean of students/director of Diversity Programs.

*In a few weeks we will facilitate a dialogue with both groups.
