DR. NATHAN CARTAGENA
Professor of Philosophy at Wheaton College
Since the United States has seen and experienced massive amounts of racism and racial unrest in the last several months, Dr. Cartagena assists us in the thinking about these implications for small groups.
Main Session:
Race and racism as you care for small groups
Possible Discussion Questions:
When was the first time you became aware of your race?
How do you see race impacting the lived experiences of students on campus?
What is one way you can move towards racial healing and unity in light of what you’ve heard?
How can we ensure that we are not ignoring racialized differences in our small groups? On campus? In our community?
How can we make students feel seen in the midst of their trauma during this pandemic?
How might we ensure students understand that they are seen and valued where they are at with their trauma?
