ROC2Change emerged as students from Monroe County began to come together to address race relations in their community.
Our guiding principles include the following:
“We are in this together”
Be respectful
Be present
Speak briefly
Speak from your own experiences
Be mindful of the messages body language can send
Ask clarifying questions
Challenge ideas, not people
Accept conflict and resolution as an opportunity to learn
Suspend judgement of yourself and others
Treat the openness of others as a gift
Honor the confidentiality of personal sharing
The goal is not to agree, but to gain understanding
When we disagree, we…
“Treat people like people.”
“Listen, listen, listen”
“Pause.  Breathe.  Love.”
“Distract them”
“Accept”​
