Is it subtle? I s it overt? Have I said something wrong? Have I been misunderstood? Why is racism so tricky to talk about? \;\n \;\n This experiential en gagement will explore the spoken and unspoken cultural norms of communic ation as key pieces to advancing racial equity in yourself and your work place. Here in the Pacific Northwest (PNW)\, which includes Oregon\, Was hington and Idaho\, we have a unique flavor of communication norms refer red to as passive aggressive and conflict aversion. Based on WASP (white \, anglo\, saxon Protestant and middle class)\, the PNW regionally commu nicates indirect and 'watered down' sharing of information. This is sign ificant because it is hard to manage for something if you cannot name it clearly for everyone to understand. Tone policing\, vagueness\, deflect ing\, blaming the messenger rather than engage in the content of the mes sage\, civility politics\, conflict aversion etc are a few forms this ta kes. \;\n \;\nPresenters Fleur Larsen and Jodi-Ann Burey\, origina lly from Seattle and New York City respectively\, will draw from their o wn lived experiences and invite attendees to do the same. We will identi fy how these regional norms impede addressing racial equity when people and institutions are not able to squarely name dynamics. White dominant culture is held together with the glue of passive aggressive communicati on norms here in the PNW making it really sticky to pull apart and ident ify racism in situations or conflicts. Together\, we will name the ingre dients needed to live into a better conversation and take racism head on . \;\n \;\nTicket pricing is on a sliding scale. Nobody will be t urned away for lack of funds for this event. Contact equity@theriveter.c o for more information. \;\n \;\n About Fleur Larsen: \;\n 3\;\nFleur Larsen grew up in Seattle and learned how to relate to others based on the dominant identities she holds: white\, protestant\, workin g class\, and socialized female. The norms of this region have a particu lar flavor of conflict aversion\, indirectness and passive aggressivenes s that are deeply ingrained in me from an early age. Unlearning these ha s been a HUGE place of personal and professional growth as she’s aimed h erself at racial equity work. \;\n \;\nFleur started facilitating 18 years ago on challenge course programs with youth and adults. Curren tly\, she works with several companies utilizing challenge and experient ial facilitation with corporate and nonprofit groups. People often learn better by doing. Experiential facilitation engages and activates more p arts of the brain. Her style is based on sharp analysis\, flexible think ing\, fun\, purpose and results. Her work is relationship-based with con nection\, collaboration\, and community as integral elements to reach re sults. \;\n \;\n About Jodi-Ann Burey: \;\n \;\nJodi-Ann B urey is the Senior Director of Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) at The Riveter\, a membership workspace and community platform built by wo men\, for everyone. She leads the development of a robust programming po rtfolio that powers The Riveter’s mission to redefine equity in the work place. With a strong focus on intersectionality\, Jodi-Ann works to ensu re all women and their allies—inclusive of any gender\, race\, ethnicity \, age\, sexuality\, ability\, and child status - can leverage The Rivet er to develop as impactful leaders in their businesses\, networks\, and the world. \;\n \;\n Jodi-Ann is also one of the founding members and co-chairs of the Seattle DEI Community of Practice (DEI CoP)\, an e xpansive network of professionals across industry committed to improving DEI practices at work. Jodi-Ann earned her Masters in Public Health fro m the University of Michigan and her Bachelors in Communications from Bo ston College.\n\nTags: communication\, racial equity\, workplace\, Ethic s\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250476197 URL:https://www.eventbrite.com/e/pnws-language-of-racism-disrupting-passi ve-aggressive-communication-norms-tickets-67507828733 SUMMARY:PNW's Language of Racism: Disrupting Passive Aggressive Communica tion Norms LOCATION:The Riveter: 501 Southeast 14th Avenue\, Portland OR 97214 US SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20190913T220428Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20190917T200000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20190917T180000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20190913T220428Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20190913T220428Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250476198 DESCRIPTION:Are you excited to support the nomination of your favorite po litical candidate?
