Is racism over now that we have a black President?  Are we now living in a Post-racial America?

This session is designed to provide an examination of race, privilege and systemic racism and their implications for all of our lives. Participants will deepen their competency for raising and addressing racism as a barrier to individuals, organizations, communities and our nation in living out our deepest values.
