About the event

About the course:

This course challenges the notion that any manifestation of racism is micro but truly violent to the well-being of everyone, in particular black and brown people of any ethnicity, nationality, or indigenous group.  Furthermore, any racism is a microcosm of what is below the water line.  Participants in this course will challenge the definitions of microaggression and reframing any acts of racism as connected to our larger systems.  Participants will practice using tools that take seemingly micro, or isolated incidents of racism and reveal the macro issues lying beneath.  Participants will use tools for naming and unpacking the root causes of what we have traditionally labeled microaggressions or macroaggressions.  Participants that complete this course will be better equipped with tools to engage in root cause analysis of organizational racial issues traditionally referred to as “micro” or macro. There is no prerequisite.

About our Facilitator/CEO:

Tony Hudson is driven by a purpose to align people and resources to center racial consciousness and intersectional equity in relationships and collaboration.  Tony has spent the last 20+ years leading racial equity organizations as an executive, researcher, and consultant.  Tony developed the Systemic Racially Conscious Collaboration™ Framework; a suite of research-based tools structured to assist people and organizations in transformation.

Before founding Racially Conscious Collaboration™ Tony spent the last twelve years successfully ushering organizations across the US through racial consciousness development and organizational change. Tony is currently completing a dissertation documenting the experiences of leaders that have engaged in successful systemic racial equity transformation with his help as a consultant.  Before his work as a consultant, he led systemic racial equity transformation work for the Osseo School District of Minnesota as the Executive Director of Equity. Prior to his experience as Executive Director, he was a Head Principal and led his school to the 99th percentile in Minnesota for the rate at which they were eliminating racial disparities. During his time in educational administration Tony volunteered with Isaiah Minnesota where he led school superintendents statewide to address the cradle to prison pipeline that results from racial disparities in school discipline.

Tony has also served in community-based, non-profit leadership positions, including the Minnesota Children’s Defense Fund where he founded several Freedom Schools. Maybe most important, he made Denzel Washington’s “Devil in a Blue Dress” his all-time favorite movie and continues to spend a short infinity convincing his kids that since he lived through the golden ages of 80s, 90s, and early 2000s hip hop that he has more credibility as a fan and critic of the genre they do. . still trying to convince them.
