In partnership with the nation's leading antiracist training organization, artEquity, this is an interactive online workshop with Sharifa Johka that provides antiracist approaches for the hiring process. These antiracist approaches are applicable for all industries and professional fields. 


Some Testimonials:

"The clarity of the presentation. The breakdown of six concrete steps, all clearly explained with examples and specific takeaways that are easy to communicate to others in the organization. Looking at those specific issues also helps to generate conversations about larger organizational values in very specific ways".


"Just having all of this info organized in one place was great...and I was really taken with the idea that an individual can do something even if the organization is dragging behind."

Talking Back is a six-part conversation series that reveals the growing movement for justice in the theatre field. Hosted by artEquity Founder and Executive Director, Carmen Morgan, this series brings artEquity's practice of facilitating hard and necessary conversations to a broader audience. The curtain is pulled back and viewers will gain insight into the activism and progress that has been achieved by theater practitioners from across the field. Through engagement with self-determined founding Artistic Directors, newly appointed leaders, and activists who have operated at all levels of leadership in arts organizations across the United States, we learn what it takes to transform, not just an institution, but an entire industry.
