Volunteer Training 201: Building (a Just and Inclusive) Community

This highly interactive two-part workshop aims to support Common Power volunteers in navigating diverse spaces and interpersonal dynamics with fellow volunteers and potential voters. The workshop’s content, activities, and exercises engage participants in reflection and mindfulness around identity, power, privilege, positionality, and bias.


Session one: Tuesday, May 7th

we deepen our understanding of the history of institutionalized racism; we examine how federal practices of the New Deal shaped and continue to impact the neighborhoods in our communities, reflecting on the ways these socioeconomic barriers have furthered inequities, and interrogate the ‘traditional narratives’ which bypass this history.

Session two: Wednesday, May 8th

We’ll laser-focus on power, privilege, and identity, further discussing how macro-sources of socialization impact our biases, assumptions, and ultimately, our ability to connect across differences. Interwoven throughout both sessions are methods of community-building, including equalizing communication practices that support connection, understanding, and solidarity. Come ready to engage!
