Originally launched in the summer of 2020, the Black, Indigenous, People of Color Surviving Predominantly White Institution Series is a multi-part series designed to share strategies for:
what to do when sh*t goes down;
interfacing with white leadership;
identifying and navigating racialized trauma;
how to cultivate BIPOC solidarity;
how to create a sustainable system of self-care and prioritize healing;
how to know when it’s time to go and create an exit strategy; and
building community beyond PWIs.
Goals of Series
Create a community of support for Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) who are either actively working, have worked, or are considering working in a predominantly white institution (PWI);
Break through the isolation experienced by BIPOC folks who are often the only one or one of few inside of white institutions;
Provide fundamental concepts and terminology to support and empower BIPOC folks in identifying and navigating racism while working in PWIs;
Activate wellness and healing for BIPOC folks as central to surviving and thriving; and
Provide and inspire strategies for BIPOC folks that meet them where they are currently on their journeys, whether they’re seeking to disrupt, survive, and/or leave.
This space is for individuals who identify as People of Color, BIPOC, AAPI, MENASA, ALAANA, SWANA, Black/African American, Indigenous/Native, Latinx/Latine, or People of the Global Majority. If you identify as white, we invite you to explore other training opportunities.
