RAPIDLY DISSEMINATES THE FACTS IN A UNIQUELY ENGAGING MANNER
FACTUALITY is a facilitated dialogue, crash course, and board game, all in one, that simulates real life experiences in America. It is played with a rich group of diverse characters (above) that encounter a series of fact based advantages and limitations based on the intersection of their race, gender, sexual orientation, faith, and class.

OVERVIEW
FACTUALITY’s board game delivery allows participants to get comfortable with being uncomfortable, allowing for a courageous conversation about structural inequality, in America. In under 90 minutes, participants will discuss and unpack the structural limitations and advantages that coincide with various intersecting identities.
FACTUALITY is played with eight characters that belong to the following racial groups: Asian, White, African American, and Latinx. There are male and female characters, LGBTQ characters, Muslim, and Jewish characters. Each character encounters a series of fact based advantages and limitations based on the intersection of their race, gender, sexual orientation, faith, and class.
Participants are then engaged in a facilitated conversation that includes but is not limited to: racial, gender, religious, and sexual orientation discrimination, privilege, gender and racial pay gaps, redlining and gentrification, median income averages by race and gender, (mental) health disparities, prison and bail disparities, accessibility, education inequity, and intersectionality.

Thank you for a meaningful and well-recieved training day with Framingham State's Residence Life team! We hope to incorporate your training again in the future! -Glenn Cochran, Associate Dean of Students/Director, Residence Life, Framingham State
I am a creature full of ignorance but hungry for knowledge. Factuality met me where I was at, taught me, and left me inspired to seek a deeper understanding of American (and perhaps global) structural inequality. I played in a group of extraordinarily "woke" young people, which reminded me that, as a white man, I must continually pursue an understanding of the struggles of my compatriots of diverse colors, creeds, and perspectives. -Jacob Scharfman, Freelance Singer, The Juilliard School
I will gladly tell any institution interested that it is the best program we've ever had and the ONLY program where our RAs are asking for it to be longer. Thanks again!!! -Katy Mangold, Associate Director of Residential Services, Muhlenberg College
Your presence in large groups and the way you use your own experiences for teaching shows a deep commitment for social change and the amount of work you've done to create such an amazing tool for educating people on institutionalized oppression is astounding. -Megan Gilbert, Skill Set Facilitator
