Most student bodies and faculty are not racially representative of their local communities. When students engage in work with communities living in poverty where the representation of people of color is also disproportionate, when/how do we talk about this reality? Is our responsibility to students of color different from our responsibility to white students? What is our responsibility to white students and students with other kinds of privilege in teaching them about cultural humility? How do we as faculty and staff work with community organizations and clients? Discussion of the COVID-19 crisis, disasters, and more will be included in this interactive conversation.
