Absolutely awesome. Engaging,, informative, inspiring & current. One of the best CLE courses I have ever experienced.

The presenter did a great job of making her points understandable to an audience that probably doesn't get challenged much on its own biases. I hope they can hear her. I'd say she ought to look for a bigger platform beyond CLE to address these issues in our larger society, because she's very effective at making them relatable.

Engaging and brilliant. Great CLE!

Wow! This was the most transparent, blatant, thought-provoking and honest training on diversity I have ever heard. This specific course and facilitator should be mandatory for everyone in the legal profession!

Great presentation!

Nicely done. There is a line from Joni Mitchell's Amelia that I like: "People will tell you where they've been, They'll tell you where to go: But, until you get there yourself, You'll never really know." Ms. Santiago has a good way of challenging people's thinking without getting one's defenses up.

Wonderful, powerful presenter

I could listen to this speaker talk about painting dry. she was amazing!

Spectacular presentation! Ms. Martinez Santiago deftly addressed this minefield of a topic with grace, confidence, and perhaps most importantly, humility. I only wish everyone had the ability to hear what she has to say.

Awesome CLE. Disappointed at the number of attendees

Phenomenal speaker and topic. You should offer more along these issues.

Very well done.
