The Breaking Bias Summit is the only virtual event focusing on using mindfulness to dismantle the effects of systemic racism. It will help empower attendees with mindfulness tools necessary to eradicate racism in our lifetimes.
The virtual summit will have TWO keynote speaker sessions along with EIGHT workshops from leaders representing various industries and disciplines. The interactive and community-based sessions will be led by industry experts on each day of the summit.
Each day’s sessions will help attendees learn about antiracism, the effects of bias, mindfulness, activism, and restorative approaches for cultural change. The workshops will be a great opportunity for attendees to connect and network with fellow anti racism activists and leaders of the community.
“One of our organization’s guiding principles is a thought from the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., who said that ‘Our goal is to build a beloved community. To do this will require a qualitative shift in our hearts and a quantitative shift in our lives’,” said founder and CEO, Anu Gupta, on why the summit is relevant and timely. “The idea of the Beloved Community underlies everything we do, and our goal with this Summit is to guide people toward acquiring and practicing these tools to begin to make these quantitative and qualitative shifts. We hope that by the end of our time together, attendees understand what their own action plans can look like as they begin to take steps toward eradicating racism.”
“Systemic and casual racism can both act as menaces to the society and hinder progress in all walks of life. I am glad that the vFairs platform will be used to put an end to racist acts by educating people how their actions reflect on the outcome,” said Muhammad Younas, CEO of vFairs.
The Breaking Bias Summit aims to use mindfulness to dismantle racism and build new habits in a cohesive and structured way in collaboration with vFairs and you can register for it here.
