August 28, 2020- Inspiration and Adaptation: ”R.A.C.E.S. Story Circle” with Skywalker Payne

Skywalker Payne’s work embraces her experience as a professional oral storyteller, performance artist, author, poet, nurse, and healer. She is leading a new workshop model called R.A.C.E.S. (Race A Concept Explored in Story Circle). Built upon her storytelling experience, knowledge of Black history and racism, Skywalker found storytelling an effective method to communicate difficult feelings and experiences. The goal is to establish R.A.C.E.S. Circle as a model to enable anyone to rise above limiting racial concepts. This tool can be used in businesses or organizations to explore race in a non-threatening, non-judgemental, empathetic space. Bunnell's board and staff participated in a R.A.C.E.S workshop last month and and some will be joining us on Zoom for our conversation. more.
