NADTA Calls for Members to Stand Against White Supremacy

December 6, 2018 by ITA Staff

During the annual North American Drama Therapy Association conference this year, the Diversity Committee launched an initiative and asked its members to contribute to the #DramaTherapistsAgainstWhiteSupremacy campaign. This is a culmination of a two-year collaborative effort created under the leadership of past Diversity Chair Jessica Bleuer, Adam Stevens, the current Diversity Committee and the 134 members who responded to a call to action, sharing what they wanted to see NADTA members do to fight white supremacy.

#DramaTherapistsAgainstWhiteSupremacy also emerged from the 2017 NADTA Racial Justice Dialogues series where 200+ members and allied professionals participated in conversations about racial identity, racial discrimination and allyship. Many of these dialogues ended with a call to action, with many participants asking, “and now what?”. #DramaTherapistsAgainstWhiteSupremacy responds to this call and hopes to incite a community-wide initiative that challenges racism through concrete actions.
