Presentation |  Jan 19, 2019

Public Montessori Educators of Texas

Critical consciousness is the process of developing an awareness that identifies the continuation of oppression and the recognition of privilege. Once this never-ending process begins, one can fully engage in anti-bias/antiracist conversations. This workshop shall uphold the critical consciousness framework according to Freire through group dialogue, participatory action, and empowerment.
