[quote=Anonymous]As a POC who is deeply support live of racial equity work I find that DEI trainings/meetings can be really hit or miss. If the leadership is disengaged or has their own agenda it can be really bad. If it gets bogged down into airing of grievances it can do a lot more harm than good. If it is an HR training telling people not to display Nazi symbols in their office so the org doesn't get sued that is pretty worthless unless those obvious things are a big issue in your org. It absolutely can be a total waste of time. IMO it should be focused on training on structural racism (e.g. the Racial Equity Institute's two-day training) and on addressing microaggressions in the workplace (the book Subtle Acts of Exclusion offers a really good framework for this). It should also include efforts to identify how to embed anti racism into your work and implementing those actions. Racism affects everything.[/quote]
