Roxy Manning, Certified NVC Trainer:
Join Roxy Manning for a provocative fishbowl discussion about how privilege and lack of privilege affect people of color.
What is a Fishbowl Process? The Fishbowl Process involves a small group of people — seated in circle — who're having a conversation in full view of a larger group of listeners. It provides a creative way of including "the public" in a small group discussion. Although largely self-organizing once the discussion is underway, a Fishbowl usually has a moderator, and is almost always part of a larger process of dialogue and deliberation.
