Are you ready to look deeply and honestly at the discrimination that is happening around you and what that brings up in you? It’s easy for DEI work to stay at the generic “social-washing” level rather than holding the profoundly complex historical foundations and cultural conditions that perpetuate discrimination. Exploring our own intersectional identities, our lived experience in this culture and our inner relationship with discrimination can bring us to a much deeper level of engagement with DEI efforts.   In this episode of A Recipe for Transformation Chrysta explores what we have to do to intentionally and meaningfully pursue diversity, equity and inclusion and how to assess whether DEI initiatives are really addressing the deep, historically rooted cultural narratives that create and maintain barriers to thriving for certain demographics, highlighting:  Moving beyond well-intentioned training courses and language and into changing real-life situations where discrimination is happening DEI interventions need to become responsive and strategic rather than isolated incidents disengaged from real lifeThe importance of contextualizing movements for thriving in the historical and cultural hierarchies of who is valued and who is notThe fundamental questions that can help us move beyond the surface DEI activities into transformational DEI workExploring our intersectional identities and the ways in which they are advantaged and disadvantaged and how that can help us position ourselves in DEI efforts “We have to humanize our diversity, equity and inclusion work. And by that, I mean we have to put people back in the center of all these DEI investments. We have to stop thinking about DEI as a tactic or activity or some strategy that looks great on an Instagram post or a website banner because we’re really talking about creating new conditions. A new way of treating one another. A new way of doing work.”  Chrysta WilsonS1 E2, A Recipe for Transformation www.RecipeForTransformation.comConnect with Chrysta:https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrystawilson/https://www.instagram.com/wilsonandassociatesconsulting/
