When folks say DEI is dead, my response....

Last week members of the Dream Team, Andria Livingston and myself along with 2 of our friends, Natalia and Sun, spent the entire day on a retreat leading the DEI steering team at Washington County, MN

We started the day with the Power of Breathe with Natalia, listennnnn we all have the power to breathe and re-enter ourselves in a moments notice.

Build relationship through the Power of Story with my favorite game, Story Stitch, create by Green Card Voices

Talk through the Power of definitions as we focused in on DEI

Ate a yummy lunch and danced (The Power of Fun)

Andria led a powerful conversation on the the Power of where you sit and I jumped in to lead them into implementing thier DEI strategies

Finally, Sun ended with some Yin Chair Yoga and wheww it was soooo good and what we needed as we end our time together. The power of slowing down.

Thank you to Dawan Propps Sr., MA and the entire team for showing up and doing this work with us to make folks lives better.

DEI is Dead? Nahhhhhhhhhhhh

Have you even been a part of a conversation that moved you unexpectedly?

I received this email after leading a training on 'Breaking the Cycle of White Supremacy' and it moved me because one of the things I’ve learned is 'when you invite people into the room, you can't beat them up when they arrive.'

This book, which is inspired by the training that Tony is referring to above, is the power of this work and we believe there will be more stories like this one after reading this book.

We are asking that if you believe these conversations matter, pre-order a book or two, make a pledge, plan a book club for next year or support this work because it matters. We are connecting our head, hearts and hands towards liberation and justice.

You can pre-order your copy and check out the campaign in the comments

We have 28 more days to meet our goal

Thank you for your support

It was in college, I first heard the quote, ' They tried to bury us, but they didn't know we were seeds' Last week I joined 200 DEI leaders and practitioners from around the country and the hope, love, light, and liberation that was in this room told me everything I need to know:

DEI IS NOT DEAD, IT WAS UPROOTED

It was uprooted because it was:

- Planted in bad soil
- Not planted deep enough

The bad soil we know is the environment which is a huge factor if a seed will grow but I want to talk about going/digging deeper.

We have an opportunity to dig deeper now and we must.

Diversity includes everyone, I mean everyone and therefore inclusion and equity is for everyone as well.

This moment is inviting us to deepen our definitions, our frameworks, our rigor,

our expectations in workshops, our systems, our hope, our language, our understanding of multidisciplinary practice and more.

DEI can't die because it is about humans and if we are alive, DEI is too

Lets dig deeper because trees and seeds ahave a lot to teach us

Thanks for reading and would love have you contribute to the conversation
