Training for Asian Pacific Islanders

INTERNALIZED RACISM: (1) The poison of racism seeping into the psyches of people of color, until people of color believe about themselves what whites believe about them -- that they are inferior to whites; (2) The behavior of one person of color toward another that stems from this psychic poisoning. Often called "inter-racial hostility;" and (3) The acceptance by persons of color of Eurocentric values. (See Harris and Ordoira, op. cit. pp. 304-3 16.)

Please join us for the first in a series of intense conversations about internalized racism. This workshop is open to Asian/Pacific Americans and is designed to create a space where we can talk and think critically amongst ourselves about how we organize.
