3rd Monday of each month
6:30-8:00pm
Begins January 18, 2021
What exactly is the White Anti-racism Project?
Is it possible to create a world that works for everyone?
Whose work is it to do?
T his group is for white people who are dedicated to not only being antiracist, but also to making lasting change for their own lives and for their community.
OUR INTENTION
Our intention is to create a safe and sacred space in which to have open discussion. To have a shared experience in healing racism, to become aware of our own racial biases, to support each other by breaking the silence about racism, and to work toward change. We believe that if we, as white people, want to “create a world that works for everyone”, this is work we must do.
WHY A GROUP FOR WHITE PEOPLE?
White people and people of color have work to do, both separately and together. Our first step as white people, is to examine what it means to be white, to reflect upon our beliefs, our actions, and our privilege. Only then can we participate in creating a world that works for everyone.
HOW WILL WE DO THIS WORK?
We will do this work with book discussions, guest speakers, movies and other materials that are relevant. We will share resources for further learning about how our beliefs about race affects us, and in turn, our community.
We are all learning. We are not here to teach anything. We are not the experts. We are looking forward to learning and growing with you!
We will begin with the book “White Fragility” by Robyn D’Angelo. For the January Meeting we will discuss Chapters 1-4.
