THE CAIRO QUESTION
Cairo is a 2 year old little boy born in March 2020. His birth came shortly before former police officer Derek Chauvin took a knee and murdered George Floyd. While preparing for a BLM protest, Cairo's family ponders this question: Will Cairo have to protest in his lifetime for the birthright to freely and peacefully exist in the skin in which he was born?

Testimonials
The mastermind pilot session was luanched in partnership with the OMA Center for Mind Body Spirit in the fall of 2020. Here's what participants had to say about their experience.
During your Discovery Call, Anita will answer any questions you may have.
The Secret to a Successful Journey is to Start with Conversation
In his book, The Conversation, Robert Livingston describes conversation as one of the most powerful ways to build knowledge, awareness, and empathy to cultivate change.
Conversation includes both seeking and speaking truth to empower knowledge and understanding of racism and to increase confidence and commitment to engage in racial dialogue.
Conversation becomes a social exchange that dispels the fear that talking about race will only make it worse.
Anita's work also aligns with Livingston's three essential concepts:
- Understanding the problem of racism and where it comes from
- Caring enough about the problem and the people it harms
- Willingly contributing to solve the problem
Activism through Coaching
I designed Activism through Coaching as a means to create a brave space for conversations about racism, personal transformation, and individual accountability.
"Racism is a disruptor. When it is present, something other than health and wellness emerges." —Anita D Russell
