Face Your Neighbor

by Dr. TK

Update: 12-12-2020
Creating a safe space in rehearsal to discuss important issues is no easy task, and yet it’s one of the most important and rewarding aspects of leading choirs. In this workshop, participants will learn strategies, techniques, and activities to recognize and value the differences that make our communities dynamic and vibrant.

How can we as music educators do more to address systemic inequalities in society? This is a question that we tackle in this workshop.

Materials:

What if Instead of Calling People Out, We Called Them In? – New York Times (Article)
The Frustrations Behind the George Floyd Protests – Bryan Stevenson (Article)
Dying of Whiteness – Jonathan M. Metzl (Book)
Racism Has A Cost for Everyone – Heather C. McGhee (TED Talk)
Teaching Tolerance
