Responding to Racist Remarks

This workshop is designed to give participants an approach for dealing with racist remarks by family members, strangers, friends, colleagues and others. It acknowledges that the flood of emotions that sometimes occur in these situations may limit the full range of responses white community members have when witnessing or overhearing racist remarks.

Participants learn a process and then practice real situations so that in the future they can increase their ability to respond effectively without hostility or condescension. Facilitated by SURJ Rochester.
