Hi Clodagh, I have used the use of pictures that tell a story, but it might not be the story people assume e.g. two men running from a building - might think fleeing from a crime, only when the picture scans out you see debris falling from the building. I have seen a similar one when you see one man looking as if they are shoving another man from behind, again when the photo scans out you see the second man in clearly pushing the first man out of harms way, if you get the right pictures it can be quite illuminating it seems to make it obvious that all too quickly we jump to conclusions. Also a part told story to one person, in a gossip/whispers type of way so quickly becomes embellished with facts that were not in the original story esp. if the words chosen in the fist story are deliberately vague or ambiguous, this could be built up into an exercise I would be interested to know what other suggestions you get if I think of anything else I will add a response |

Hi Clodagh
My instinctive reaction would be that Witches of Glum or Goldilocks would be perfect for this. My slight concern would be if people who have been on the workshop tell people who haven't yet attended about the exercise (though you could of course ask for discretion).
Another alternative for you is Tapping it Out. I do tweak it slightly when I run it so just drop me an email if you want to know more.
All the best

Hi, When I ran a similar session I included a "Ted Talk " by Verna Myers called "How to overcome our biases? Walk boldly towards them" I asked people to think about the 3 areas that Verna talks about and to be ready to discuss. It created a lot of discussion. Geraldine Clarke |
