Her session gave me direction
I have done a lot of work in my schooling about Privilege and Race, but Dr. Watts offered a wealth of knowledge and resources… her session gave me direction and empowered me to be a more active, brave ally. I wish I could have Dr. Watts speak to every class on every campus.
I have learned so much
and am grateful for the opportunity to have worked with you!
It was helpful
for me to think about my role as an ally and really work on being more intentional and action oriented than passive. I also loved the term Injustice Disruptor
