Go over the group agreements, then discuss the following questions:
- How has it been for you since the last meeting? Did anything from the book stick with you during that time?
- What were your “aha!” moments while reading this chapter?
- How does gendered racism negatively impact people of all races and genders?
- Are there instances where you specifically see gender racism at OSU? How so?
- Kendi talks about how their homophobia was instilled through silence. Do you have parallels in your own life? Which has been the stronger influence on you - implicit or explicit statements/behavior?
- How does your understanding of gender and race match up with what you have been explicitly told about gender and race?
- How did gender expectations play into treatment of Black mothers?
Wrap up: Depending on time, you may ask people to put these in chat
- What is a specific action you can take in the next week that is anti-racist?
- What worked today? What didn’t work?
