The Most Impactful Way to Build Anti-Racist Systems

is for White People, Especially Those Who Are Leaders in Communities or in the Workplace, to Work With Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) in the Conversations Around Racism.
Dismantling racism does not happen simply because there is a desire to see change and justice.
It is a process of learning how to have hard conversations with BIPOC without shutting down or being defensive, then bridging these conversations to White communities.
The On The Matter of Race Summit is the first step on this journey.
While historically White people have been involved in the fight against racism, there is a desperate need for understanding how to participate in ways that productively support the efforts of Black, Indigenous, People of Color without upholding the conscious and subconscious practices of systemic racism. For BIPOC there is a deep need for the daily and generational effects of racism on their lives to be validated, understood further and for them to hear and express how white people can effectively participate with us in the fight against racism.

Who This Free Summit is For
It’s for a White Person that...
adjust
You said you wanted to do something about racism when George Floyd was murdered, but you honestly have done very little or not enough.
adjust
You were taught the way not to be racist is to treat people the way you want to be treated
adjust
When talking about Black people, you whisper the word Black because talking about race was considered impolite in your household.
adjust
Has never heard other white people talking about systemic racism, privilege and power and their effects on BIPOC.
adjust
You believe that you don’t see color.
adjust
You’re a person of influence in a predominantly White community.
adjust
You work in DEI, Human resources or other positions of power in the workforce.
adjust
You’ve been accused of White fragility in conversations about racism.
adjust
You tend to speak up for BIPOC without checking in on what they need from you first.
adjust
You are raising white children and you don’t know how to talk to them about racism.
adjust
You ask BIPOC to educate you about racism.
adjust
You don’t know what you can even do about racism so you choose to do nothing other than be nice.
It’s for a BIPOC that...
adjust
Just need to be validated in your feelings about and experiences with racism.
adjust
Need to gather with others to hear how other BIPOC are engaging in the fight against racism in their own fields.
adjust
Want to hear from white people who are learning about racism and its effects on BIPOC and are using their privilege and power in the right way.
adjust
Want to strengthen their own work in this area.
adjust
Experience conversations about racism with the white people in your life and they continue to be frustrating and unproductive.
adjust
Want to learn specifics about what white people can do to support BIPOC in these conversations.
adjust
Are in positions of power supervising diverse teams.
adjust
Have loved ones who are white that you want to invite to participate in this Summit with you.
adjust
You are raising children who have white friends and you want to empower them to have productive conversations about this with them.
adjust
You are involved in school committees or PTA’s and you want to bring these conversations into those meetings.
adjust
You have almost given up hope that anything will really be done about racism.
adjust
You know how racism affects your life and you want to learn more about how it shows up systemically.
adjust
You want to be involved in the fight against racism but don’t know what others are doing and where there might be a place for you.
White people, especially those who are seen as leaders in the workplace or in their communities, have to do the work to find their voice and practice actively being supportive allies in the fight against racism.
People of color are already out there making our voices heard and it is hard, and we need to have our voices heard in how our allies can best help affect change in this country.

Lynne Maureen Hurdle
I am a conflict resolution strategist, facilitator, speaker and coach. In addition, I am the author of the best seller, Closing Conflict for Leaders: How to Be a Bold Leader and Develop a Kick-Ass, High-Functioning, Happy AF Team.
In many circles, I am known as The Conflict Closer, not just because I help leaders gain the skills they need to dig deep and finally close the door on those conflicts that have been plaguing their business for too long, but also because I help you bring conflict closer. That’s right, I help you bring conflict close enough to examine the roots of it, the fruits of it and the long-lasting effects it has on your business and your life. I make it less scary by helping you to actually see it, get to know it, be in relationship with it. Because it is only then that you can use it to help you and your team transform.
I have helped a lot of people transform in my thirty plus years of doing this work and that’s because through a mix of different styles and methods, I make it interesting and fun.
