011: Nancy Riestenberg: Equity in the Workplace and in the World
Nancy Riestenberg is a member of the Minnesota Restorative Practices Community. She’s also the author of “Circle in the Square: Building Community and Repairing Harm in School”. She has worked for a long time in violence prevention, asset promotion, and restorative practices in school. For fun, Nancy likes sitting in circles with others.
In this episode Dr. Gaye Lang and Nancy Riestenberg discuss:
- Intention in being restorative
- Where restoration starts
- Creating conditions where people can express
- Keeping your hand on the plow
Key Takeaways:
- It takes intention to be restorative since it is easier to not be restorative.
- People need to first be aware of their own biases, their own understandings of the world. They need to have a curiosity for people that are different from them.
- Think about how we can create conditions for them to be able to feel as though people can express themselves.
- Keep your hand on the plow, don’t stop fighting for ground when it comes to creating spaces of equity within your community.
“People are unique and so it’s very important for people to be able to continually learn and practice and explore and make mistakes and be fallible and learn some more.” - Nancy Riestenberg
