Bio: Rie Algeo Gilsdorf, MS, MA, has broad experience as a principal, arts administrator, facilitator, coach, teacher of science and dance, and parent in innovative public, private, magnet and charter schools. She spent her early career delivering, designing and guiding arts-integrated, student-centered learning, and most recently spent five years at Courageous Conversation learning how to engage productively in equity work as a white woman.
Throughout her career Rie has also facilitated adult learning that develops capacity to achieve equity across race, gender, sexuality and ability in redesigned schools and progressive faith communities.
She now provides racial equity seminars, coaching and consulting through Embody Equity. Rie has been trained as an Advanced Practitioner of Social Presencing Theater and an Affiliate Practitioner of Courageous Conversations About Race.
Freeing Refrains is a prototype storytelling space imagined for Biracial & Rural (BnR), a community of care and storytelling space. In 2022 Freeing Refrains is inviting guest storytellers to share and complexify our reflections on what is restricting and empowering.
The current BnR dream is to come together in arts based retreats over the summer and continue the connection virtually over the winter. Retreats culminate with participants sharing their story at an Open Mic event to foster community dialogue. Read more at http://www.pointsoflightmusic.net/p/biracial-rural.html.
