Diane Wong (she, her) holds a Juris Doctorate, is a certified mediator, facilitator, and global conflict resolution processor. Born into a Black, Chinese, Mexican, Irish, Native American family, Diane grew up as a member of Cleveland’s Black community and attended a segregated school system.
Diane’s experience navigating an educational system that sought to undermine her sense of self and history led her to pursue a J.D from Harvard Law School.
Versatile and drawing from her background in law, conflict resolution, and yoga, Diane’s multidimensional approach guides clients toward a greater understanding of themselves and the community as they learn to support Justice equity and inclusion. Her facilitative scope includes work with cities, towns, schools, community organizations, and large-scale engagement in shifting corporate culture.
Diane is Co-Founder and Co-Host of an award-winning multimedia radio show and podcast, Let’s Talk About Race, which invites people to have conversations around race and racism. Diane also founded the Racial Justice Collaborative (RJC), a team of mediators, facilitators, educators, therapists, and visionaries who work with community members to build awareness, create learning opportunities, and facilitate growth processing racial feelings and beliefs.
In 2020, DWC, in partnership with RJC, hosted two 2 Race Dialogue Retreats with over 200 participants from all over the world seeking to dismantle white supremacy. Reach Diane at dianemwong@gmail.com
