ACSO Webinar: Understanding, Identifying, and Interrupting Microaggressions in Orchestra Settings
Wednesday, April 3 | 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM Presenter: Jessica Schmidt, Principal Consultant, Orchestrate Inclusion
Building upon fundamental Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) concepts, this session will introduce the concept of microaggressions, offer examples of how they can appear in orchestra environments and beyond, and build consideration of their effect on individuals of marginalized identities. Participants will explore key styles of conflict and internalize the practice of identifying, interrupting, and responding to microaggressions.
