There is a compelling initiative called the Central Florida Pledge.
Park Lake began a series called The Pledge Educational Series at Park Lake on November 14 and will be hosting six events over the next two years, working through bias issues using the framework of the Central Florida Pledge.
This first event was on homophobia/transphobia. The next in February 2025 will be on racism, then there will be one on misogyny, one on Islamophobia, another on Antisemitism, with a final event on Ableism.
In preparation of the first event, attendees were asked to complete the Harvard Implicit Bias Tests for homophobia and transphobia (those are two different tests) for usage in advance of the meeting. The testing is free and the results are private.
Here are the Bios of the presenters for I’m Not Homophobic Am I?
It was an informative evening and good conversation on this important issue.
