<ul><li><strong>Implicit Bias - What We Don’t Think We Think</strong></li><li>Everyone has implicit biases. Implicit bias is part of how our brains are wired BUT that does not mean we can’t change for the better! Victoria uses research, data, and narrative to guide folks to recognize, challenge and change bias in the world around them and even deep within themselves. Even if it can be uncomfortable to admit we have a bias, we can’t solve a problem we won’t admit exists. Recognition is just the first step.</li><li><strong>When I Liberate Myself, I Liberate Others</strong></li><li>Miss Fannie Lou Hammer, a prominent Civil Rights activist, once said, “When I liberate myself, I liberate others. If you don’t speak out ain’t anybody going to speak out for you.” Victoria Alexander guides participants in collaboratively recognizing, challenging, and changing their biases, whether directed toward other communities or internalized within themselves. The emphasis of this program is on progress rather than perfection.</li><li><strong>Pride Past, Present, and Future: A Brief LGBTQ History</strong></li><li>In this interactive keynote, Victoria (a Black, Queer, Womanist) integrates a timeline of LGBTQ+ history with personal storytelling, empirical data, and audience participation to reveal how LGBTQ+ history impacts all of our collective past, present, and future. Queer and trans folks are, have always been, and will always be at the center of American culture, art, industry, politics, activism, and innovation.</li><li><strong>Anti-Blackness - Beyond the Hashtag</strong></li><li>This program focuses on personal reflection and growth opportunities to combat internalized anti-Blackness and its manifestations on various levels of the personal and professional experience. Victoria uses research, data, and narrative to guide folks to recognize, challenge and change anti-Black attitudes and behaviors in the world around them and even deep within themselves. It’s not about perfection. It’s about progress.</li><li><strong>What Do We Mean “Values Based Organizations?” - Social Identity in Fraternity and Sorority Life</strong></li><li>Fraternity and sorority life can be one of the most transformative experiences students can have. At the same time, we can’t tell the stories of our organizations, or fully understand our groups without a full picture of the history of social identity in fraternity and sorority life. Let’s move past the information on the website and in the new member education pamphlet.</li></ul>
