How to be an Antiracist Leader - Part 3 (Knowledge Acquisition, Cognitive Complexity, Civic Engagement, Interpersonal Competence)

IMPORTANT INFORMATION BEFORE YOU REGISTER: -Books will be purchased for each student attending this workshop series -Students must be able to attend all three sessions (3/22, 4/12, and 4/19: 12:30-2pm) How to be an Antiracist Leader is distinctive in its combination of the popular work of Ibram Kendi and the public leadership work of Hank Rubin. This workshop series focuses on practical and essential principles of antiracism and leadership for aspiring public sector leaders. Becoming an antiracist leader requires a commitment to deep introspection, ongoing learning and action. Dr. Ibram K. Kendi's book How To Be An Antiracist and Dr. Hank Rubin’s book Collaborative Leadership will help guide your self-examination of the relationship between race, racism, antiracism with the roles, goals and metrics that influence and measure the leadership we provide in our campus communities as well as the leadership we will provide in our civic, social, and familial roles. [Students will read Kendi’s book and one or more eBook(s) derived from Rubin’s book.] In Level 2 of the Medallion Program, we begin our leadership journey with the simple adage that being a leader "always means working with others…” This workshop series is predicated on the belief that working with others requires a deep understanding of our relationships with issues of race and racism. Instructors: Dr. Kim McKinsey-Mabry & Dr. Hank Rubin Sponsored by: Medallion Program, Rochester Center for Collaborative Leadership, Paul J. Burgett Intercultural Center, The College Diversity Roundtable
