DESCRIPTION:Fri-Sun, September 24-26, 2010; Friday 2pm until Sunday 2pm\n\nLet's Get 
 Real: Unlearning Racism (Overnight) Retreat\n\nFacilitator: Lee Mun 
 Wah\n\nThere is so much that is unsaid in this country about race issues. 
 In this retreat we will explore a variety of ways to have this dialogue on 
 race and racism that will lead to a more intimate and honest conversation 
 and relationship with each other. This retreat is about confronting some of 
 the issues that keep us all from talking to one another about race/racism. 
 It is also about discovering new ways to begin that conversation, how to 
 create a bridge to talk about our differences, exploring what opens us up 
 and what closes us down, and finally, 101 ways to become Culturally 
 Competent in our relationships and workplaces.\n\nBefore we can truly 
 become a multicultural nation, we must have a relationship based on respect 
 and understanding, reflection and curiosity; where our differences and our 
 similarities are embraced, valued and integrated into the very fabric of 
 our workplaces, communities, schools and governmental institutions. What is 
 required is an on-going dialogue and relationship with each other. I hope 
 that you will join us in making this not only a better world for our 
 children, but for ourselves - not by starting tomorrow, but by beginning 
 that conversation today.\n\nParticipants will learn:\n\n    * 9 Healthy 
 Ways to Communicate\n    * 101 Ways to Become Culturally Competent\n    * 
 21 Statements That Stop A Diversity Conversation\n    * The Art of 
 Listening & Responding Cross-Culturally\n\nPlease bring with you sleeping 
 bags/overnight gear if you wish to spend the night in our training center 
 and/or on the property grounds.\n\nRequired Materials\n\nYou are required
