About this workshop: 

Talking about race and racism can be difficult. For thos eof us working in prisons, immigration removal centres and forensic units we might be aware that rates of incarceration are higher than they should be for racialised people. Is race something we need to talk about, to have meaningful, healing relationships with the racialised people they are working with?

- The structural realities that shape our awareness of racism

- Concepts to do with racism

- How both black and white bodies hold racialised trauma, especially in forensic settings 

- How to work with our anxiety when it comes to responding to issues around race

- How we can engage with race in a meaningful way for the people we work with
