Wisdom of Jane Elliott at 90 – International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination

Join us on Zoom for International Day to for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination for a talk with Jane Elliott.  A facilitated dialogue will follow the presentation.

Best known for the Blue-Eye Brown-Eye experiment in the film The Eye of the Storm, Jane Elliott has a mission:  ONE RACE.  Internationally known teacher, lecturer, diversity trainer, and recipient of the National Mental Health Association Award for Excellence in Education, exposes prejudice and bigotry for what it is, an irrational class system based upon purely arbitrary factors. And if you think this does not apply to you. . . you are in for a rude awakening.

Memorable Jane Elliott quotes:

“No one is born a racist. The problem is not with our bodies, but with our conditioning.”

“It’s not about guilt, it’s about responsibility. We are responsible for what our society has taught us, and only we can choose to unlearn and relearn.”

“Prejudice is an emotional commitment to ignorance.”

“Change starts with self-reflection, then it extends to our families, communities, and institutions.”
