Virtual Sessions
Evaluation as a Tool for Liberation
Offered by:
Koren Dennison
Audience:
All - Open to Everyone
In this session, participants will be introduced to evaluation as a tool for liberation. We will discuss how everyone has and uses an evaluative skillset on the daily; and how that can be leveraged to create solutions in our society. We will explore storytelling evaluation methodologies, such as photovoice and journey mapping, and dive into a real world example of the way UBUNTU has partnered with YWCA to uplift lived experiences of those participating in their Basic Tech Skills course.
In this session, two young professionals with Dane County Department of Human Services share their experiences as organizational change agents in their effort to elevate the importance of the hair and skin care for BIPOC youth in out of home care. They're joined by DCDHS leadership and a senior social worker, and, together, they will describe the complex process of bringing about ongoing statewide systems change through education and advocacy that centers lived experience and the voice of youth
Past the Edge of the World: Fugitivity and the Art of Being Lost
Offered by:
Autumn Brown
Audience:
All - Open to Everyone
Creating new worlds requires us to release attachment to the world as it is, including our distorted attachments to the things about this world we most revile. But this is much easier said than done. In this 2 hour session, participants will dive deep into Fugitive Practice, learn and explore a set of “orienting” practices that support us to become lost from systems of domination, and feel agency to create new worlds here and now, inside of our current reality. Please bring a journal and writing utensil to write/draw with.
Centering Native ways of Knowing to Create New Worlds
Offered by:
Courtney Reed Jenkins & David O’Conner & Anna DeMers
Audience:
All - Open to Everyone
Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) is defined as knowledge and practices passed from generation to generation informed by cultural memories, sensitivity to change, and values that include reciprocity. TEK is about change and adapting to that change gracefully and with intentionality. It is the original form of systems thinking, focusing on sustainability and living rightly on the Earth. Rooted in spiritual health, culture, and language, TEK is a lifeway. (Traditional Ecological Knowledge Lab)
How can TEK help us "create new worlds"? Come to this session to learn more about TEK, to reflect on how TEK offers a sense of hope and possibility for racial and ecological justice, and practice connecting with others through deep inquiry and conversation. Leave with an invitation to continue the conversation next year through facilitated book circles.
The Crown We Never Take Off... a continued journey of organizational transformation
Offered by:
Fortuna Schrank, Justyce McGuire, Charlie Larson, & Connie Bettin

Justice or Just Us: An Intersectional Imperative to (Trans)Gender & Racial Justice
Offered by:
Malú Machuca Rose & Meiver De la Cruz
Audience:
All - Open to Everyone
queering the body; practices of enlivening nuance
Offered by:
Lizzie Bruno & Miriam Hall
Audience:
All - Open to Everyone
This session shares skills to free us from the binaries of the dominant culture. We will use tools of exploration and embodiment to make more space for life. In this session we will open sharing analysis around how our bodies get shaped by binaries. We will explore the contradictions that we live within and bring this into practice. In small groups we will practice centering under the pressure of these contradictions to increase our capacity to be with them and to be with what matters to us. We will close exploring what is possible when we can be with the nuance of our experiences individually and collectively.
We hope participants leave with more capacity for all the complexity that arises when we face oppression and longing for life.
This session explores the pervasive challenges and discrimination faced by Muslims in the United States, drawing from personal experiences and scholarly research. The session will delve into the harmful dominant narrative that often associates Muslims with terrorism and anti-Americanism, and its detrimental effects on Muslim identity and sense of belonging. Through the lens of critical race theory and the use of counterstories, attendees will learn how storytelling and personal narratives can serve as powerful tools of resistance and transformation. The session will also highlight the role of community organizations and cultural centers in creating supportive communities and counterspaces for Muslims. Practical strategies for policymakers, community leaders, and educators will be discussed, including policy reviews, providing religious accommodations, and implementing sensitivity and cultural awareness training to combat Islamophobia and support the holistic needs of Muslims.
Antisemitism is on the rise today, in our era of growing white Christian nationalism. At the same time, national debates around what antisemitism is, and what it isn't, are more contentious and confusing than ever. With Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza, it is more important than ever to distinguish criticism of Israel from antisemitism. At the same time, we as people committed to social justice need to understand how antisemitism fits into other forms of oppression, and how to fight it with solidarity.
This interactive workshop will help us understand antisemitism through an intersectional lens, analyzing both how it impacts Jewish communities and how it works alongside other forms of oppression, such as anti-immigrant xenophobia, anti-black racism and anti-LGBTQ bigotry, to keep broader structures of racial capitalism in place. We’ll get clear on the difference between antisemitism and criticism of Israel, while recognizing that antisemitism, like other kinds of oppression, can sometimes show up in movements to shape change for social justice. Finally, we’ll explore strategies of fighting antisemitism wherever it shows up, from a perspective of solidarity and collective liberation.
Redefining Muslim Identity: Counterstories and Community Building

Safety through Solidarity: Fighting Antisemitism with Collective Liberation
Offered by:

Food as a Human Right: developing the Dane County Food Plan as the center of a policy wheel for intersectional racial justice
Offered by:
Abha Thakkar
Audience:
All - Open to Everyone
A deep commitment to food as a human right can act as a foundation for worker rights, land use, education, health equity, transportation, disability access, environmental sustainability, infrastructure and small business development (among other!) policy areas that not just create shared sustenance for all, but can actually bring to life a more equitable, racially just community in every way imaginable. And eating together is a joyful, nourishing and culturally and ancestrally grounded practice - what better form of movement work could we ask for? Join us to explore what a food system is, how we can influence it and provide input to help craft real policy in Dane County's regional food action plan.
What does transphobia have to do with racism and white supremacy? This session will push participants to consider the significance and impact of an intersectional approach to gender and racial justice, in a way that honors the Black feminists who birthed these frameworks into existence. Centering trans and nonbinary communities of color and their experiences with oppression, the session will use reflection, dialogue, and teachings from activism and scholarship to move our communities closer to racial and gender justice.
Participants will be able to:
describe the ways in which the historical and contemporary legacies of racism and transphobia are intertwined with one another and their impacts on trans communities of color today.
apply the concepts learned to their own analysis and practice.
engage in self-reflection of their own experiences with gender and race in a space that is welcoming to BIPOC, trans and gender nonconforming people.
We will create a shared analysis on the attacks on Immigrant rights, Queer rights and Reproductive rights to discuss how we can continue to advocate, organize, and build communities we deserve beyond election cycles. During this session we will highlight the importance of immigration justice in relation to racial, Queer, and Reproductive justice. We will also explore and discuss ways we can continue to build grassroot movements that don't see immigrant justice as an add on, but as a necessity to achieve true racial healing and economic freedom.
Answering the call from Black organizers for white people to organize for racial justice in white communities, Showing Up for Racial Justice now works with thousands of white people in hundreds of chapters across the country. Poor and working class white folks have a lot to gain from movements for justice, and SURJ’s goal is to out-organize white supremacist movements in their communities.This session will introduce participants to the storytelling and persuasion skills used by SURJ’s successful national phone bank program, and facilitate connections to opportunities to practice them in the coming months.

Hello! I am honored and humbled to participate in this year’s YWCA Racial Justice Summit. I have many accomplishments over a thirty-eight year career in community mental health and social work—developing programs, supervising teams, providing direct service, and participating on coalitions, always with the intention to positively impact the community, though, in hind-sight, not fully aware of the privilege and power I carried into those spaces. Understanding my responsibility of power as a leader has been transformative in my work and the possibility of its impact for positive change, with much yet to learn. My racial and social justice practice is centered, steady, and relational. As a white, queer, economically secure, able bodied, woman, sister, daughter, aunt, co-worker, leader, partner and friend, I strive to open dialogues that challenge white supremacy and oppressive beliefs, that expand heart and mind, my own and that of others. I am fiercely committed to a practice of self-improvement that examines power, is curious and open, creates space for authenticity, and builds relationships. As a Division Administrator at Dane County Human Services, I currently have the opportunity to work, arm-in-arm, with others equally as committed to transforming our organization, one-step at a time. Finally, I find peace and community in nature, capturing its simplicity and complexity through photography.

My name is Justyce McGuire, and I have been working as an Ongoing Child Protective Services Social Worker at Dane County Department of Human Services for over a year. As a social worker, I strive to engage families in a positive working relationship to achieve a safe, stable home and permanence for children. Not only this, but it is essential to support parents/caregivers in order to strive for safety, permanency and wellbeing for children. In addition to providing ongoing case management to children and families, I co-run the Crown Closet, a Dane County hair closet in multiple offices where we provide hair products and supplies for BIPOC Youth.
This BIPOC hair advocacy journey began when I was interning for DCDHS in 2022-23. A system level issue was identified when working with a youth of color who has been experiencing hair based discrimination. After further inspection, we realized that this youth wasn’t the only one who had gone through this. As a Woman of Color and a child welfare worker, it was incredibly disheartening and disappointing to see how many BIPOC youth and their families, struggling to access proper hair care products and resources. From that point on, I had made it commitment to be a part of the solution; to promote and educate others on the importance of BIPOC hair care and continue to advocate and support for culturally sensitive practices for the children and families we work with.

My name is Fortuna, and I've been working with Dane County Human Services for over a year. My journey began during my internship with Justyce and Charlie, where I became involved in hair advocacy—a cause that has profoundly shaped my early career. As a Black woman and international adoptee, hair is a central part of my identity. Hearing the stories of Black children and families struggling to access proper hair care resources was both disheartening and frustrating. What seemed like a small, easily solvable issue was, in reality, a significant challenge for Black families navigating a system that often overlooked these basic needs. My work is driven by a commitment to ensuring that Black families feel supported and understood, particularly in areas where cultural sensitivity and practical resources are crucial.

Drop-In Facilitated Spaces in Identity-Based Community (Race, Gender, etc.)
We offer race, gender, and other identity-based community spaces to be responsive to the way our system of racial inequity impacts each of us differently. This differentiated impact means that we are called to engage in differentiated learning, unlearning, and practice.
People who have been racialized as Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) and/or Multiracial** will have opportunities to gather with others who have been racialized similarly with the intention to support healing, community, and power-building with each other.
People who have would like to be in community around their gender identities and/or sexuality** will have opportunities to gather with others who identify similarly with the intention to support healing, community, and power-building with each other.
People who have been racialized as white** will have opportunities to gather with others to engage in honest and vulnerable reflections on the ways that white dominance is present in their lives, and how they can be accountable for ongoing racial justice practice and action.
Race-Based Affinity Spaces are always an invitation and are not mandatory. Each person can choose what is a healthy growth edge in their journey.
**Please note that if you do not provide your race at registration you will only have access to community spaces that are open to everyone.
