I think I'm going to do the "Adultism" training on April 30th if anyone wants to join.
ADULTISM
Adultism is a form of oppression that privileges adults over youth and children. It perpetuates age-based stereotypes that limit the potential for intergenerational power-building. When people practice adultism, young people are viewed as objects instead of resources. This training will help adults learn more about how to dismantle adultism culturally, institutionally, interpersonally, and personally. Participants will be challenged to learn what they can do to be an ally to young people.
The next adultism training is:
Saturday, April 30, 2011
11 am – 2 pm
CFS Center for Social Change, 719 S. State St., Ste. 3N
Pre-registration is required. Complete the registration for the Adultism training online here.
---I want to do their Anti-Racism Training for White Allies, but it happens to fall on graduation day. Maybe next time. Here's the link:
