Some recent events in my consulting work on cultural diversity.
Since 2006, we have
been working with Minnesota State University, Moorhead to infuse
anti-racist multicultural objectives across the curriculum. Close to 30 members
of the faculty have participated in four and half-day long workshops. We review
anti-racism analysis, look at pedagogical theory and practice and work, across
disciplines with the infusion of anti-racist multicultural objectives in
courses.
18 members of the MSUM faculty
participate in the first training led by Dr. Emily Drew (Willamette College,
Oregon) and Dr. Victor M. Rodriguez (Cal State, Long Beach).
Close to 150 employees of Clay County Social Services and the Moorhead Police
Department, Minnesota attend a plenary session in a week-long seminar
"Building Culturally Competent Institutions." This event (January
8-12, 2001) was organized and sponsored by a local planning team which included
members of the local Latino community, Minnesota State University, Moorhead and
representatives from both local agencies.
