Episode Synopsis

Any parent knows that no two children are exactly the same. They each have their own style of communication, problem solving, and conflict resolving (or creating). Just like siblings, not all DEI training programs are created equally. Each program depends on the training professional’s area of expertise. If you are seeking out DEI training for your organization, it is important to recognize this. One of the questions arising in the sea of training options is whether DEI training is the same as a training on anti-racism. This week on the podcast, Shaunna and Lisa discuss the difference between DEI and anti-racism training and how DEI professionals can help structure programming and education to better incorporate principles of anti-racism. They compare training topics to peace-keeping and peace-making and discuss how to build a training that is right for your organization.  Mentioned in the podcast:The history and changing narrative of KumbayaFrom the Hell Yeah/Hell Naw segment: Middle school aged girls and “shapewear”The first non-binary athlete to compete in the Winter Olympics
