Course Description

This online workshop will draw on an anti-racism and anti-Black racism perspective to examine social justice, systemic change and resistance in Ontario’s youth sector.

We will explore strategies promoted as part of anti-racism efforts such as critical reflexivity, organizational accountability and Black youth capacity building, and interrogate their applicability to racial justice and Black youth wellbeing.

Join us for this two-part workshop to learn the basic concepts, terminologies, social context, and organizational realities of oppression.

This FREE workshop will be facilitated by Nene Kwasi Kafele, an educator, social justice and youth advocate, researcher and community organizer. Participants will identify some core principles at the personal, relational, and organizational levels in working with marginalized youth.
