The online workshop experience provides a comprehensive course on the Humanize My Hoodie Movement’s approach to preventing racist attacks on Black people, Indigenous People, and other People of Color. The subject matter is pertinent to professionals in wide array of backgrounds: public health, mental health, juvenile justice, criminal justice, education, higher education, foster care, and community-defined evidence – in its attention to clothing and the irrational fear of people of color, particularly Black people. Using several innovative strategies, this online workshop experience mirrors the in-person ally workshop that has received overwhelming success. Workshop facilitators educate by using historical analysis, case law, theory and application opportunities, lecture, transformative assignments, and self-care breaks to maximize learning potential.

Participants will gain valuable knowledge to reduce threat perception, identify micro-aggressions, debunk myths of Black criminality, understand ally ship, and skills to effectively advocate for someone from a marginalized community.
