She can design a unique educational experience and implementation strategy for your team, organization or business to help you meet your long-range goals. Topics available: Race Talk and Implicit Bias: What we have learned, is that it is not enough to simply recognize the presence of implicit unconscious bias based on race to change an organizational culture. What we know, is that engaging in courageous and honest race talk can be terrifying and is deeply personal for all involved. What we fear though, is that our best efforts to create bias-free environments will fail because the work was insufficient to create lasting, systemic change. Kiah can provide education on implicit bias, facilitate inner-group dialogues on race and give your organization the tools needed to implement group driven ideas towards systemic change. Moving Beyond Cultural Competency: The research is clear - organizations that have meaningful diversity out perform in all domains. Employees report greater satisfaction in their work and the quality of their work is markedly superior. In the movement towards greater equity, introductory cultural competency trainings are frequently employed to begin needed conversations. What we are finding is that becoming merely culturally competent is no longer sufficient. This program is for organizations that have completed some anti-bias training but have not seen a shift in perceptions of bias amongst peers. Kiah will lead your team in assessment methodologies to identify barriers and opportunities to strengthen your efforts. Building Bridges Participatory Action Research (PAR): PAR is a research methodology that flips the typical anthropological relationship of researcher/subject by activating the members of a community in conducting their own inquiries about their lived experiences. This approach positions them as subject matter experts of their own experience and knowledge of the sectors they represent. Most strategies to address bias are centered on a victim/perpetuator dynamic which often impedes communication and the ability to activate readiness to change in groups. PAR disrupts this dynamic by centering the views and voices of the participants as equals. Kiah will guide your group in use the Photovoice Method to create a visual and narrative assessment of race relations within a defined community. The resulting work includes a photographic exhibit, archive of the findings and recommendations. Great for college or school environments. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1511641860198-TNHZRZ1B79ZIPVRR9KYF/DSC_0789.JPG Professional Services - Live Performance Kiah is available on a limited basis for spoken word live performance at your venue.

This collection is the perfect starting place to experience Kiah’s seemingly limitless energy as it tours us through love in all its forms and encourages us to dance in the light.” - Shane Lukas, Assaults on the Marathon, Blood for Wings, and Every Ineloquency ****** Friends, this collection of poems is my first foray into publishing my work. These poems are poignant, dark, funny, inspirational and deeply personal. Non-traditional, sometimes prose-like. Not all are appropriate for all audiences and some may trigger deep emotions. Included are poems about my heartbreaks, my triumphs and the ups and downs of my life. Sharing these stories and my art is an incredibly vulnerable act, and well worth it. Themes came forth from this work: Inspiration and Laughter – Poems that explore the challenges of marathon-esque journeys, resilience and rather clumsy sexual themes. Helpless Romanticism – I love, love. I get sappy and emotional at times. Love Letters – This is a growing series of pieces inspired by a friendship that began in my youth and spans decades of memories. Through the Darkness and Into the Light – Pieces that talk about misogyny, violence and the human spirit. This includes special poems I wrote during my trip to Central America with Oxfam, one of which was entered into the Congressional Record. I Got Ex Issues – Breakups. Heartbreak. Letting go. The Politics of American Racism – Title says it all. Spirituality Manifested – The ways I use my gifts as a healer, intuit and human to express my spirituality. I hope that you will enjoy this collection, and perhaps be inspired to create your own. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1579310309118-U2OGJUEQL4VPZQ3OHKYI/Book+Cover_Front.jpg Poetry https://kiahmorris.co/professional-services-inquiry daily 0.75 2025-02-19 https://kiahmorris.co/kmorriscv daily 0.75 2018-12-10 https://kiahmorris.co/color-lines-in-the-green-mountains daily 0.75 2021-02-28 https://kiahmorris.co/media daily 0.75 2020-03-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799288649-CNT7PIL8558BSUHSZOA0/Kiah+Morris-16.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799209821-2KFOSB4275KEAKEKNFW2/Kiah+Morris-1.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799209908-6GNGU8EB6HCHJ1BQRXC0/Kiah+Morris-2.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799218915-0P6NZ0AOKQR8GRI0I1SN/Kiah+Morris-3.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799219481-HWPAXE8O7B0GNT6YKKXK/Kiah+Morris-4.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799230627-ZP6GXI6G8TI53PZHKN7N/Kiah+Morris-5.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799234782-MBU1PWXVJ8MX4U64KPU8/Kiah+Morris-6.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799242498-RWWXEF43FVDWXQG880T6/Kiah+Morris-7.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799241913-0VTTGXPGOPOHVWY7TOFO/Kiah+Morris-8.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799249499-TET42WMJDJZABM0V3JJF/Kiah+Morris-9.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799250725-3HX13IH4KVGIB6IRCHNZ/Kiah+Morris-10.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799260353-SXZZ7M8SATDRMPNHKU0D/Kiah+Morris-11.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799262439-FX1630D2Q4198SIFJT3D/Kiah+Morris-12.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799267590-ZH122XQPGMPLF2JTGTVH/Kiah+Morris-13.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799271640-NQY4GH0DONWI8XUE3F50/Kiah+Morris-14.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799278503-UB5X09ATH2I484RW9DM4/Kiah+Morris-15.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799297316-2RN438XBQJZL6LSEZKDA/Kiah+Morris-18.jpg Photos and Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1584799923712-GEA6WQXZR47CEW2Q6X20/Kiah+Morris-17.jpg Photos and Media https://kiahmorris.co/professional-services-draft daily 0.75 2023-07-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a19c3cc0abd04e470dc83ba/1511983157823-1XDS29HFANMXZXG3D6A6/Trainings.jpg Professional services - Draft - Workshops & Trainings Kiah is an in-demand trainer and facilitator for inner-group dialogues.
