Testimonials

Thank you for leading us through these discussions. Out of a month of far too many Zoom meetings, this is the meeting from which I benefit the most and I look forward to most.

Throughout my life I have focused on having high regard for equality. I can cite numerous examples where I worked to provide equal opportunity. As a result of the ERG Group training, I began to see that my viewpoint itself was biased, and I have changed my life to pursue the topic more deeply.

The value of a safe place to have honest and meaningful conversations about race cannot be underestimated. ERG creates small, intimate groups that develop a deep sense of trust that, frankly, are the only way to explore race and racism from a deeply personal vantage point. Talking about race and the role of white people is extraordinarily difficult and full of personal risk. Most of us want real change to happen, but we lack the language and courage to act. ERG is one of the few places where pow- erful conversations with people you respect can take place. I have found it engaging and em- powering, and strongly recommend the experi- ence. It has prepared me to work more effectively for change.
