Decolonized Healing: The Art of Mental Mastery for Black Boys and Men
Tuesday October 8, 2024 11:30am - 12:30pm EDT
CSU Harry S. Downs Continuing Ed Center
Embark on a transformative journey with "Decolonized Healing," where we confront the 'spirit murdering' educational environments that too often serve as precursors to incarceration rather than incubators of freedom. In this session, we will arm educators and mentors with culturally responsive strategies that dismantle these oppressive structures and champion the mental mastery of Black boys and men. Participants will acquire tools to nurture resilience, emotional intelligence, and self-efficacy, transforming schools into realms of empowerment and liberation. We'll integrate ancestral wisdom with evidence-based practices to create havens of healing, where Black boys and men can thrive academically and emotionally. Let's unite to re-envision educational spaces as foundations of freedom, where Black youth are equipped with the art of mental mastery for a life of boundless opportunity.

Unpack The Pain, Heal, Help Others!
Tuesday October 8, 2024 11:30am - 12:30pm EDT
CSU Harry S. Downs Continuing Ed Center
Today's session addresses the need to identify emotional pain and how it affects decision-making. Everyone has emotional pain, and it is essential to understand how to address it to help others. At some point, emotional pain that is ignored or unaddressed will negatively impact everything we strive to achieve. Understanding the importance of this, we must drop the anchor, stabilize the ship, address the problem, and set sail to a better life of positivity!
