“Thank you for offering this training in December on Intersectionality of Black Lives. I was thankful I could attend. As a white female social worker, I do seek out ways to learn about how my privilege affects my interactions with others. I am trying to build my awareness of what I need to change. I appreciated his attention to the importance of pushing for systemic change and pointing out how so many experiences (and the past enslavement) of BIPOC lead to complex trauma and survival behaviors and should not be pathologized.”

“Special thanks to Clinical Assistant Professor & Asst. Dean of Field Education Warren K. Graham, Ph.D(c), LCSW, ACSW, Master CASAC for kicking off our health and wellness series on the topic of Microaggressions in the Corporate Environment: Considering White Fragility and Black Rage. One of the key takeaways was around what Professor Graham calls “Corporate Redlining”; a micro aggressive trend that functions in a similar fashion to neighborhood redlining…keeping people of color out of the room (or off Zoom) and ultimately reducing progress within their respective organizations.”

“The presentation was excellent and incredibly informative. He appropriately challenged all of us to do our own work to better understand ourselves within the context of systemic racism and oppression and the deep impact on our BIPOC colleagues and clients. This work is critical (and never ending), and I have already shared his presentation with colleagues on my campus so we can all further our own learning.”

“I really enjoyed the webinar yesterday. As a White faculty member, it continued to challenge me to deepen my personal reflection, social work practice and pedagogy strategies. There are no quick fixes, but it is important for people like me to continue to engage in the process of racial healing. Thank you for another thought-provoking presentation.”

Obsidian & Indigo Consultants, LCSW, P.C. Vision Statement
Obsidian & Indigo Consultants, LCSW, P.C. Vision Statement
Our goal is to support liberation-based organizational training that counters the generational trauma of oppressive practices, privilege, institutional microaggressions, implicit bias, and white supremacist behavior. Our training and consultations are specifically geared towards BIPOC professionals and white allies in nonprofit or corporate environments.
Contextual and historical racial wounds and trauma exist for BIPOC populations. As empathetic professionals, we acknowledge the Black and Blue experience (literally and metaphorically speaking) and understand the experience of Black bodies subjected to oppressive conditions.
