Feb. 6, 2015: '#Oopsism: Communicating Effectively Across Cultures in the 21st Century' workshop

20150130-oopsism

Do you recall a moment when words escaped from your mouth that made you wish you had a delete key? In this interactive workshop, participants will focus on how innocent remarks shaped by society's negative and positive stereotypes are deemed as subtle "isms" (sexism, racism, elitism, ageism, homophobism, etc.) rather than miscommunication or misconception. Participants will learn how to manage and defuse future "Oops, that's not what I meant!" moments. Read more for registration details.

Rosa Parks galvanized a movement when she refused to give up her seat on a bus. Shortly thereafter, Freedom Riders like Dr. Lafayette took to the interstate buses, exercising their federally recognized rights across the still-segregated South. He visits UAA on Thursday.
