We’ve been managing polarities or points of tension our whole lives “until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” — Carl Jung #sbla20

What is “the system” and what it does it mean to you? Some of our fellows answered: - “Source of power that requires collective effort to go against” - “Corruption, bureaucracy, and power” - “Judicial, physical, and social infrastructure that makes up our society” #sbla20

Systems are made up of: 👨‍👨‍👧‍👧 Individuals 👭 Interpersonal interactions 🗣 Cultural norms and messages 🏢 Institutions They all coalesce together. What’s important is that we name systems in order to disrupt them. #sbla20

How might we implement more liberating structures in our well intentioned organizations working on diversity but lack the scaffolding, training, and resources for true equity and inclusion? How might we not retraumatize the oppressed? #sbla20
