3. Why a full three days?

This summit is for people who are ready to take the next step - a deeper dive into their leadership practice. The work is thorough and will require time for participants to experience the change! Three days is a lot of time, but it is all content that people can apply right away. It's a proper conference experience, not just webinar. And think of it this way: this is three decades of knowledge being condensed down into three days!

8. What do you mean by "ally?

To be an ally is to unite oneself to another to promote a common interest. In the context of this summit, we're seeking to train people who want to ally themselves with the fight for racial equality. The skills you'll learn during the event are transferable to movements toward equality for other discriminated groups, including women, people with disabilities, LGBTQIA folks, among others.

10. I'm already socially conscious -- why do I need to attend?

Whether you're new to the racial justice conversation or you've been aware of these issues for a long time, we can always expand our knowledge and toolset to be better and more intentional activists. Everyone has subconscious biases. Without recognizing and accepting them, we can’t work toward changing them. It’s not enough for us to be “not racist” at a conscious or cognitive level -- we have to become actively anti-racist if we’re going to achieve equality.

11. What do I need to participate in the summit?

An internet connection and openness -- that's it.

12. How can I prepare for the summit?

Once you register, we'll send you some resources you can review before the summit starts.
