Join the UMW Anti-Racism/Pro-Reconciliation Team Sunday, February 20 for a discussion on Critical Race Theory. We will be joined by Dr. Kesho Scott.
Dr. Scott is an internationally renowned Diversity Trainer/Consultant, an Associate Professor of American Studies and Sociology at Grinnell College, and an award-winning writer. She was a founding member of International Capacity Building Services, a cultural competency training team that specializes in facilitating both “unlearning isms” and Human Rights workshops as well various seminars and training programs that have been successfully adapted for audiences throughout the United States and abroad.
In over two decades of developing unlearning racism work, Dr. Scott has led hundreds of professional and community-based workshops; she has been keynote speaker for national conferences as well as a participant on several dozen national and local radio debates, discussions and public service announcements. Grounded in this extensive experience, Dr. Scott developed an “affirmative duty” technique for facilitating unlearning racism workshops. It is a method that helps shift participants’ awareness, commitment and skill-set toward being actively and personally anti-racist and anti-sexist, rather than remaining merely passive observers.
Dr. Scott’s Education and Degrees: B.A. Sociology, Wayne State University, 1974 M.A. Political Sociology, University of Detroit, 1975 Ph.D. American Studies, University of Iowa, 1988
