Challenging Anti-Black Racism in the Virtual Environment: A Webinar for Humber Faculty

Tuesday, June 16 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.

Session description:

Anti-Black racism is prejudice, attitudes, beliefs, stereotyping and/or discrimination that is directed at people of African descent and is rooted in their unique history and experience of enslavement and colonization (Confronting Anti-Black Racism Unity, City of Toronto). Anti-Black racism is not new; it has persisted for hundreds of years. However, recent media coverage of the impacts of anti-black racism has brought greater awareness to the issue, and the need to act.

This two-hour workshop will focus on how faculty can act, by working in allyship with the Black community in confronting anti-Black racism. Specifically, participants of this workshop will examine anti-Black racism in the virtual environment and explore the impacts of power in higher education and discuss strategies for challenging anti-Black racism.
