Becoming an Ally and Accomplice (University-Wide)
07/26/2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
In a world seeking allyship, what does it mean to be an “accomplice”? In this 2-hour workshop, participants will learn the roles of allies and accomplices to dismantle systems of oppression. Participants will learn about the different types of allies that contribute to uplifting those around you that have been marginalized. Participants will explore how their privilege can be relative in situations at work and they will assess how their privilege is best leveraged when taking action.
