Race and Conflict in American Society: A Conversation
Posted on Jan 24 2012 under Previous Programs, Race | Tags: Cherl Jamison, Conflict, Conflict Connections Inc, conflict resolution, Lou Gieszl, Pattie Porter, race, racial conflict, racism
Join in as Lou Gieszl and Cheryl Jamison examine conflict dynamics when race is an issue. Racism is less overt and yet more complex than at any other time in our history. Because racism tends to be implicit, it often gets overlooked or mislabeled. How can we recognize when race is an issue? Are there landmines that can be avoided? The presenters dispute the notion of a post-racial society and argue that effective conflict management often depends on acknowledging race as a divisive issue. Focusing especially on Black-White relations, the show includes tips for identifying racial issues underlying interpersonal conflicts as well as ideas for building positive connections across racial lines.
