Outline: “Are you unsure if something is cultural appropriation or appreciation? This interactive and informative 1.5 hour workshop is facilitated virtually by Kerry Cavers, Founder & President of Moms Against Racism Canada. With compassion and connection, Kerry helps attendees build the foundational knowledge and understanding they need to critically discern for themselves the difference between the two concepts.
Kerry invites participants to reflect upon their personal experiences and relationships to different cultures while leading them through a thought-provoking session covering:
- What is Moms Against Racism?
- Definitions: Appreciation vs Affinity vs Appropriation, Culture
- Examples: The Power Dynamic: Costumes, The Problem with Disney, Just because you can…
- Questions and Discussion
Questions can be submitted ahead of time by email or posed via chat (anonymously if desired) or live during the session.
A worksheet is provided so participants can actively follow along, take notes, capture insights, and document commitments throughout the session. Additional resources also provided following the workshop.”
