Subject: The Path to Personal Decolonization Workshop Series Reminder

Reminder,

The Social Justice Center is offering a new workshop series titled: The Path to Personal Decolonization.  This series is a group of four workshops, that build on each other.  The dates are:

  *   April 12, 2022,
  *   April 19, 2022,
  *   April 26, 2022, and
  *   May 3, 2022.



These 90-minute workshops will be offered 10:00 - 11:30 a.m. and 2:00 - 3:30 p.m., on all dates.

The Path to Personal Decolonization are educational and inspirational workshops for professional development in higher education. This program equips participating faculty and staff to engage in personal resilience and decolonization. It is designed with the strategic starting point to provide tools necessary for building a practice of self-reflection and guided personal paradigm amendment. The session begins with two courses that will prepare participants to engage with identifying their current social perspectives and the cultural structures that uphold White supremacy in all aspects of civilization. It concludes with the history of Whiteness and race, and the path toward reconnection with our humanity through globally aligned indigenous practices.

Objective
The objective of this comprehensive curriculum is to provide tangible outcomes that will assist students, staff, and faculty in efficiently engaging in complex dialogue about race, racism, diversity, and ethnicity. This program helps participants foster an environment of inclusion and belonging. The knowledge shared aims to increase awareness of an individual's connection to their community, ancestry, and the whole by providing insight into how to effectively intervene within systems.

Learning Outcomes
The learning outcomes of this program, such as Resilience Advantage, Evolution of Alohā, The Colonized Mind, Dismantling Whiteness, and Personal Decolonization, will provide guidance and leadership for participants to process and understand the social impact in these trying times. The program will provide the tools needed for self-discovery while revealing our collective responsibility to eliminate structural racism and promote diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging while improving outcomes for students from historically marginalized communities.

The workshops will be facilitated by Dr. Gerry Ebalaroza-Tunnell & Jeremy Tunnell
