Webinar Description
This webinar offers participants tools to help frame conversations on race, ethnicity and equity. We will explore how to use data and text and personal experience to construct conversations that explore the intersections of race, ethnicity, gender and class. In addition, we will look at ways to make these conversations relevant for different age groups and settings. These conversations are integral to the process of developing strategies and interventions to address inequities in our schools and communities.
