From February 19-25, the State Bar of Nevada invites members to celebrate Black History Month by participating in a Seven Days of Self-Awareness Challenge to help augment awareness, empathy, compassion, and determination to stand for racial equality.
What is the challenge?
The challenge is done individually and at your own pace, by reading, listening, and viewing recommendations from a curated list. The goal of exploring this media list is to assist participants in becoming more aware and engaged.
The recommended assignments are short, typically taking 15 minutes or less each day. The list includes media focused on the Black American experience, with perspectives on Black history, identity, and culture. It also specifically includes perspectives from Black lawyers and judges in America.
How do I participate?
Each challenge is a personal experience. To participate, simply check the assignment lists online and read or watch the recommended content. To help stay engaged, the state bar invites members to sign up for each challenge’s email list.
During the official dates of the challenge, the state bar will send participants daily emails with links to each day’s content, along with thoughtful observations and question prompts to get the most out of the experience.
