Have you ever found yourself in a meeting where someone made a comment and you immediately heard its racist, sexist, etc undertones leaving you to think “Am I the only person who peeped that?!”
Do you wonder “Why are we forced to take all these cultural competency trainings at work when nothing seems to be changing in the policies or practices of the company?”
Do you look around your organization/company and notice that higher ranking officials tend to be primarily white while people in service-based roles tend not to be?
Are you in a supervisory or management role and struggle with issues like high(er than expected) employee turnover, racial/gender disparities across titles, or worse “Quit but stay” syndrome?
Chances are, you answered yes to at least one of the above questions. The Ignant Intellectual Group, LLC is who you should partner with to figure out why and to provide you the tools to implement our step-by-step strategy to shift your organization, company, family, etc towards an inclusive, anti-oppressive, and healing one.
If that sounds overwhelming, fret not. You are not alone. Let us do the equitable thinking with you.

Organizational Analysis & ChangeWithout consistent and deliberate external interventions, systems go from order to disorder on their own.
It is likely that some of your organization's current modi operandi are inequitable & have been so since their inception. Our role is to think through the gaps in your organizational policies & practices and develop small-scale strategies that result in large-scale systems change. You are not alone. Let us do the equitable organizational analysis & change with you! |
Identity Caucusing...because everything ain't for everybody.
Identity caucuses are intentional & facilitated spaces where identity groups process separately so that when they come back together, both have the skills and tools to speak truth to power in order to dismantle structural barriers. |
Curriculum DevelopmentWe get it. Curriculum design/development requires a special someone. Someone who enjoys equitable thinking, critical processing, rethinking, and processing again.
As luck would have it, we both enjoy it and are really good at it. You are not alone. Let us do the equitable Curriculum Development with you! |
Trainings & WorkshopsFUN FACT: Individuals cannot be trained-to-equity. For this reason and more, we do not facilitate one-off trainings as they often actively harm individuals & groups.
However, in conjunction with equitable policy and practice implementation + systematic overhauls that prioritize racial equity + equitable organizational spending + equity assessment implementation, workshops and trainings are effective strategies on the journey towards organizational transformation. |

Regarding Racial Equity Work:
The most difficult people to do this work with aren't the people who say "We shouldn't do this". The most difficult people to do this work with are the people who say "We're already doing this". --Glenn Harris, President : Race Forward |
