Courageous Conversations: Becoming Comfortable with the Uncomfortable Through Dialogue with Difference

Courageous conversations was developed by Glenn E. Singleton (M.Ed., Stanford) to support adults in having the conversations necessary to make progress on difficult subjects such as race, privilege, implicit bias, stereotypes, and ethnicity. This workshop will help participants understand the four agreements and the six conditions necessary in meaningful conversation that promotes positive change, by participating in a reflective practice entitled, “All in the Family”.

 

Implicit Bias: The Hidden Brain (MC06 - Room 108)

Facilitated by Courtnea Rainey and Angela Davis, participants will explore the hidden biases we all carry from a lifetime of exposure to cultural attitudes about age, gender, race, ethnicity, religion, social class, sexuality, disability status, and nationality, through reflective practice activities and using their personal results from the Implicit Bias Test (Harvard’s Project Implicit Tool).

Poverty Simulation

What is a Poverty Simulation?

46.7 million Americans live in poverty every day, which is almost 15% of our population. Even though North Carolina is experiencing economic growth as measured by more jobs and increased productivity, far too many North Carolinians are being left behind. In 2016, more than 1.5 million North Carolinians faced serious barriers in just paying for the basics such as food, rent, and transportation. Poverty, which means living on less than $24,600 a year for a family of four, touches individuals in every part of our state and every walk of life.

The Finish Line

The Finish Line Game has been helping college teams have those sometimes difficult, yet robust discussions surrounding student success and equity. Achieving the Dream's newly enhanced version of Finish Line Game enable teams to walk in the shoes of ten students, as they navigate their journeys through college and explore the impact of college policies, practice and culture on student progress and success. It's a valuable professional development tool and it's also fun!​
