Testimonials

The Exploring Racism Group (ERG) provides a safe, collaborative framework to discuss and consider biases in our daily lives. We often walk through life with assumptions regarding race and the motivations driving behavior. ERG’s facilitated process provides opportunities to learn, reflect and rethink the innate biases influencing our thinking and experiences. The time investment in ERG has improved my ability to remove unconscious assumptions and stereotypes and replace them with curiosity and empathy.

For me, the ERG has provided an opportunity to speak openly and explore thoughts on racism with peers in a safe and confident setting. The sense of trust formed with fellow members while sharing ideas and experiences has been very rewarding.

If you're interested in a supportive, but assertive, experience to help you learn more about how individual, institutional, structural and unconscious racism impacts society, your organization and your personal life, this experience with ERG can be very rewarding. The facilitators are experienced in assisting the development and growth of each individual's anti-racist perspectives and skills.
