Pushing Back Against Hate: Finding Ways to Resist the Rhetoric

F﻿eedback from Workshop ParticipantsN﻿ovember - December 2024 - Journey Towards Greater Inclusion"Speaking in simple language and allowing time for people to be vulnerable in a safe way.""What I liked most about the workshop was learning other people’s perspectives on different aspects of the social structures in society; very much food for thought.""Heads up we are planning to reach out in the spring and do another set of workshops with you. I thoroughly enjoyed them and feel it is such an important journey."A﻿ugust 20, 2024 - Education is Not Indoctrination"I loved the open format, and being able to connect with others across the country about this issue. I also really appreciated the factual information, strategies towards facilitating discussion with others, and the exploration of the topic.~ Monica Graham - Therapist" I really appreciate the experience that Kevin brought to the content.  He made connections and clarified with anecdotes and details that made even familiar material come alive with more depth.""﻿I really really loved hearing from the other participants.  I know we were there to hear Kevin but I found the questions and comments from the other participants so valuable.  Maybe there is a way to capture?  (I think it speaks to your community and reach that participants were so interesting and invested!) "~Ann Adamkowski - EducatorA﻿pril 24, 2024 - Pushing Back Against Hate“I have taken Kevin Bray 's workshops in the past. He's great at what he does.”~Diana McConnell - Educator"﻿What an excellent resource! Kevin is a wonderful and knowledgeable educator/facilitator. If you have struggled with understanding or just want to deepen your awareness, this might be just the thing."~Kit Woods- Parent"Thank you so much for what you do! My experience tonight was next to defying description; emotions ran the gamut. Your ability to share complex ideology in terms many can understand is phenomenal. As I said at the end of the workshop, having an cisgender man explain the way he has experienced working with gender-fluid, non-binary, transgender and all 2SLGBTQIA+ students is powerful, especially for the demographic I spend much of my time working within."~Morgan Dandie - Trans ActivistH﻿ow Can I Be Your Ally? October 2023“Thanks Kevin for a very informative and accessible workshop!”“Thank you Kevin! Really enjoyed your informative session and doing my best to ally.”“Thank you, Kevin!

As always, your workshops are engaging, meaningful and provide such rich learning.Thank you for all that you are doing to make this world a better place"~Youthspeak"Thank you, Kevin. Your deep expertise and extremely effective presentation style made the workshop outstanding. I always learn something new and I am always reassured that allyship and affirmation is a journey for us all - there is always something more to learn. Thank you for the wonderful work that you do - you role model what we all want to achieve."~Gabriella ZillmerThanks Kevin. I really appreciate the resources. Thanks for a great session last night!~Vicky Essebag - Educator and AuthorP﻿ride Workshop - Celebrating Our History - Affirming Our Lives  -Empowering Our Future: June 14, 2023"Just wanted to say another massive thank you to Kevin Bray for putting this together. The amount of work that went in to this is immeasurable. So much important information was shared last night. It is so important to educate ourselves. The more knowledge you have the more powerful you become. When we all share the heartfelt stories and tragic events that have happened and understand how and where it all began is how we get others to understand that love is love and that this community is absolutely full of love and understanding compassion and empathy. The history of our amazing community and the lives lived and lost can never be erased, forgotten or silenced ."~Leah Sheridan - Chair of Georgina PrideThanks Kevin.  I was very happy to attend: you do a terrific job of presenting the material. Thank you for the additional resources.~Nicki McShane - Social WorkerW﻿ho We Are is How We Teach  February 22, 2023Thank you, Kevin Bray, for facilitating "Who We Are & How We Teach", a workshop for educators about social identities, and for raising $900 for our youth mental health initiatives.What workshop participants had to say about the workshop!"I valued the time to reflect on what each of us brings from our experiences into all spaces and how that influences our work. I'm constantly confronting my implicit biases. I enjoyed your format. You have a natural style of presenting."~Julie Guido - EducatorA ﻿ Journey of Unlearning and Relearning - Workshop for Equity Team at AMBSD : September 22, 2022"There was so much praise for your presentation that I could not wait to return to my office and share".~Jason Burt  Equity Lead Administrator AMDSB
