Presenter: Suzanne Quigley

In my sixth decade of life, I began to realize that the beautiful world which I thought existed, is actually an elaborate deception causing great harm, within which I am an accomplice. I will share the path that brought me to this realization and my quest to uproot my conditioning and become an anti-racist.

Learning Objectives: Following this presentation, participants will be able to:

• Define stages of racial identity development.
• Identify significant touchpoints in their own racial identity development.
• Formulate next steps in a personal plan for fighting racism.
