A brief description about this Activity.
Racial terminology is daunting and sensitive, however, grouping people who are not white together, under one umbrella may not necessarily be the path to improve racial relations, and is not as progressive as it may sound. Such labels, ‘People Of Colour’ or ‘Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic’, carries a notion, ‘one size fits all’. This can feel like, you’re either White or the Other. Which in turn can feel like, White people own the majority of rights. Being grouped means that other members of the same group may feel that they are from the same community or at least acknowledge that they are not white. Therefore, people may unconsciously relate to each other by the conscious awareness that they are different to the ‘norm’. For a POC or BAME person, unconscious racial bias are common life problems that can lead to common mental health problems. Racism is a complex system of social and political levers and pulleys, set up many generations ago to continue working on the behalf of whites at the expense of others. As we move forward in time, recent generations have more awareness of this bias and although racism has certainly been reduced, it undoubtedly hasn’t been removed. How a POC/BAME person experiences bias internally is very dependent on the attachments and drives in their upbringing. In this webinar, I invite you to our internal self. I will bring myself and a childhood black friend for exploration. We will share our stories and views on conscious and unconscious bias. Our deep connection is rooted in our ‘otherness’ at school. Our purpose is to make our conscious, conscious to all and bring unconscious bias to your consciousness. We will allow time for questions and lift some of taboo subjects surrounding mental health amongst our culture.
