Welcome to Rise and Rouse!
Think back to your most successful projects. Who were your collaborators? Who did you brainstorm with? Who supported you? Who offered critical feedback?
Whatever we do, it is never done alone. This week, you’ll hear from Emerald Anderson-Ford, Chief Diversity Officer at the YWCA in Manchester NH, and founder of Communities Reaching for Equity and Diversity (CRED). Emerald is a dedicated believer in the power of community and our collective power.
In this conversation, you’ll learn about the white dominant culture and how to challenge it, moving out of isolation and into community centered work, and how to build deep, genuine working relationships.
