Towards a Science of Antiracism: A Participatory Evaluation of the Racial Equity Institute's Phase 1 Workshop

The Racial Equity Institute's (REI) Phase 1 antiracism workshop focuses on structural racism through a historical, cultural, structural, and institutional analysis of racism (Hayes-Greene, Plihcik, Love, & Hunter, 2017). Despite an estimated 12,500 people attending Phase 1 in 2019 from across the country, with audiences full of teachers, principals, police officers, public health staff, and social workers, Phase 1 has never undergone a full evaluation. Therefore, through a partnership with REI, we propose to answer the question of how the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of individuals and organizations are impacted following REI Phase 1. Given racism's reach beyond the individual level, documenting the impacts on organizational policy and outcomes is important for understanding how REI Phase 1 can change systems (Bonilla-Silva, 2006; Griffith, Childs, Eng, & Jeffries, 2007).
