This workshop is designed for participants who have already completed the two-day Anti-Racism workshop offered by BCNPHA. Dr. Jamie Joanou and Dr. Erica Nicole Griffin of Monday Morning Consultants, will lead this two-part series to further develop and refine your anti-racism lens.
The goal of the sessions is to provide participants with an understanding of intersectionality, to deepen their equity analysis, and connect with the theories and frameworks of scholars and activists leading this work. Intersectionality urges us to center the most marginalized as we work to recognize, analyze and ultimately dismantle white supremacy in the affordable housing sector. We will also cover concepts like whiteness and white feminism and explore how these ideologies have negatively shaped the non-profit sector. This workshop series emphasizes dialogue and connection, thus participants should be prepared to come to the workshops fully engaged, demonstrate vulnerability, and practice critical self reflection.
This workshop is designed for participants who have already completed the two-day Anti-Racism workshop offered by BCNPHA in 2021, 2022 or this past fall, or participants who have already engaged in similar learning, workshops or training and action through other means.
This workshop is capped at 25 participants so that we can create an interactive learning environment.
Registering for this session will register you for both Part 1 and Part 2 – registrants are expected to attend both parts of the session.

Principal, Monday Morning Consultants
Dr. Jamie Patrice Joanou brings fifteen years of experience in facilitation, and diversity, equity, and inclusion work to her leadership at Monday Morning Consultants. She is a social justice educator and Fulbright Scholar. She has worked both internationally and in the US educating to interrupt white supremacy, unlearning oppression, and facilitating anti-racism education. Additionally, Dr. Joanou brings extensive training in qualitative research methods and critical theory.
Jamie’s research focuses on systemic racism and the role of the school in the reproduction of social inequalities as well as the intersections of poverty and race in the experiences of youth living and working on the street.
She earned her Ph.D. from Arizona State University in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies, an M.A. in the Social and Philosophical Foundations of Education, also from Arizona State University, and her B.A. in Fine Art from Portland State University.
She lives in Salt Lake City with her two children and partner.
Dr. Erica Nicole Griffin is an anti-racism scholar and advocate who brings sixteen years of progressive experience in nonprofit organizational development, community education and DEIB work to her leadership at Monday Morning Consultants. She has worked internationally and in the US as a consultant and coach to leaders across the nonprofit and public sectors.
As a researcher, Erica Nicole relied on intersectionality to better understand how hyper-ghettoization and misogynoir impact the educational outcomes of Black girls in US school systems. That research informed her leadership in community-based educational programs for parents in Phoenix, Arizona; adult inmates in Atlanta’s Fulton County Jail; sex workers in Atlanta, and for homeless and trafficked youth at Covenant House Georgia.
Erica Nicole holds a doctorate in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies from Arizona State University and a BA in Public Communication from The American University. She lives in Atlanta with her two children.
