The Impact
Now go through your grid and for each column description
pick one row that seems to be truest for that statement,
mark it with an X. (i.e. you think about age least...or you are
most aware of social class).
Please continue to respect the fact that people need a quiet
safe space to do this.
Four Agreements
1. Stay engaged (and open)
2. Speak your truth (recognize others)
3. Experience discomfort (and comfort)
4. Expect and accept non-closure (yet seek relations)
Partnering up
Find someone wearing a similar color as you,
grab two chairs and find a spot in the
classroom that is yours.
Now position your chair so that you are facing
them directly.
A-B sharing
Thank you for taking time to work on this. The concept is that we take time to pay attention to how we see
ourselves and therefore how we see others. With a partner arrange yourself that you are fully listening:
facing them, making eye contact, fully engaged. Each partner is going to have 30 seconds to respond to the
following questions. The listening partner will do just that. They can give non-verbal feedback, but that is it,
no questions or comments at this time. Then I will say switch. Use that as a transition to wrap up and then
let the other partner talk. I know that I will probably end up cutting someone off, but know that if you need a
little bit more time, ask for it. I will try and move us along, but I do not want to devalue the conversations you
are having.

Discussion of experience
What did that feel like?
Was it easy or difficult to discuss?
What did you put down on your chart that spurred some thoughts?
What did your partner say that impacted you?
What other questions does it bring up?
Creating a narrative
I Am From piece
You are going to have some time now to develop a piece a little further. It can
be from either session of writing. It can take whatever form you would like...
letter, essay, poem, song, drawing or short story. The guidelines are simply that
it must express where you are from...that is wide-open to interpretation. Just
make sure that it shares with the greater audience aspects of your identity
and/or culture as a way for to develop a rich understanding of who you are. We
will be sharing these next class.
