Members of the UC-Coro Systemwide Leadership Collaborative (2020 Northern California cohort) will present findings, recommendations and resources from a reflection tool and audio stories they developed. Their purpose in creating and sharing these materials is to inspire the UC community to confront racism through the daily actions and decisions we make in our jobs.

About the Confronting Racism Speaker Series

The Confronting Racism speaker series is a program of virtual learning opportunities organized and cosponsored by Graduate, Undergraduate and Equity Affairs (GUEA) and the Office of Workplace Inclusion and Belonging (OWIB). Inspired by President Drake and the work of the UCOP Anti-Racism Task Force, Confronting Racism brings UC lecturers from a broad array of fields to UCOP to highlight contemporary issues related to equity, diversity and inclusion. All UCOP community members are encouraged to attend these events to broaden their perspective, learn how to adopt anti-racist principles in their own lives and engage in meaningful conversations with guest lecturers and colleagues.
