eCourse: How to Create Brave & Safer Spaces in an Anxious World
Posted by SpeakOut on August 8, 2023
How can we have difficult or challenging conversations with people who may not agree with or grasp our perspectives?
How do we create safer, structured environments where people from different social identities can explore power, privilege, positionality, and systems of belief?
We live in a time of unprecedented change and uncertainty, a situation which has forced many to seek refuge in comfortable, familiar spaces devoid of meaningful differences and ideological challenges. In this e-course, scholar and educator, Mohammed Soriano Bilal utilizes experiential activities and scholarship to catalyze intergroup dialogue and understanding across differences. Participants will learn dialogic methods for examining their own social identity and its relationship to power, alongside skills for designing braver and safer spaces – so necessary for engaging more people to transform our institutions to be true beacons for equity and social justice.
