Imposter Syndrome in a Scam Economy

About This Workshop:

For marginalized people imposter syndrome is almost never an indication of a lack of skill. It is usually an indication of working hard in a system that is designed to extract value from people like us without credit or appropriate compensation.

In this hour and a half long training, we will have one break-out group where students get to problem solve and create personal solutions to their experiences with imposter syndrome.

Key Takeyawyas:

  1. Establish that imposter syndrome for marginalized people is usually based in racism
  2. Learn how racial capitalism creates impossible standards disguised as “professionalism”
  3. Reframe our concept of self worth using values and accountability
