ANTI-RACISM
4REALS

REAL TALK with REAL STRATEGIES in REAL TIME for REAL CHANGE

by Sheila M. Beckford and E. Michelle Ledder

REAL TALK

Places what is needed for discussions about racism and anti-racism in direct contact with how to say the uncomfortable things, how to do the uncomfortable things, and how to remain honorable and authentically human all the while.

REAL strategies

Prioritizes ACTION-NOW Learning Engagements to move everyone beyond just talking about racism to immediate anti-racism actions as soon as you leave the training session or click “leave meeting.” REAL STRATEGIES moves from learning and talking about anti-racism work to the actual work of racial equity and justice.

REAL Time

Incorporates role-plays and participatory learning in workshops so that people are more prepared to interrupt racism in real time. Anti-Racism 4REALS believes that anti-racism modeling happens even during training, interviews, or consulting. Thus, participants will witness and experience anti-racism strategies modeled by facilitators within the anti-racism content, presentation of content, participatory engagement of skill sets, and correction of racism in REAL TIME.

REAL change

Crafts accountability templates and measures to ensure that tangible, meaningful, and powerful change for racial equity and justice replaces good intentions and workshops. REAL CHANGE provides ways to track, assess, and analyze successes and failures, and make on-the-go shifts that avoid the most common roadblocks and obstacles to anti-racism work.
