Participant Feedback -
"Fantastic. Great content. Great presentation."
"Please know I thought that was one of the best presentations I had seen and actually used your St. Louis Superman’s story about empathy/sympathy in a televised conversation about Race and Relations that was aired on our local ABC channel."
"This was an excellent training. It opened my eyes to the fallibility of some of my beliefs about my own responsibilities when it comes to systemic racism. Thank you."
"It has amazed my mind the willingness of white people, specifically, to talk about racism. For the longest time that hurt was just in Black people. I am glad it is being talked about with respect and seeking of information/answers."
"Excellent job very powerful!!"
"This was one of the most engaging and thought-provoking presentations I've seen in a long time.
This was really great and the questions at the end were excellent!"
