White racial identity development theory describes how white people develop a sense of themselves as racial beings. In this session, participants will use the Courageous Conversation ProtocolTM to move from a theoretical understanding to a personal examination of their own White racial consciousness journey.
Participants will reflect on their experiences of the stages of White racial identity development, so that they can apply these learnings to who they are a racial equity leaders in their families organizations and communities.
