This presentation will take on the topic of Race and Racism. First, in creating a safe environment and one of authenticity. In this session, we will look at the power dynamics behind race, privilege, and expose the elephant in the room of race/racism and its influence on aging services. Participants will be moved to a place of better understanding and unpacking and understanding the fear of discussing race and racism. This session will examine the structural and systemic branches of racism, why Black Lives / All Lives Matter, and simply say what needs to be said, all while understanding the strategies and approaches to an improved and inclusive aging services, healthcare, and workplaces.
