Toward White Fluidity

Maybe you've heard of white fragility. In this workshop you can begin to cultivate fluidity instead: tuning into your own physiological responses when you are challenged about your racism and white supremacy. Noticing when your own threat response kicks in, and beginning to learn how to instead engage honestly, with fewer defenses.

This workshop will focus on what is happening in your body--yours--rather than on explanations or information. We will invite you to tune into your physical sensations and make meaning of them in relation to racism and white supremacy. You might feel discomfort...which means you might grow! It's an opportunity to be curious.

We'll be facilitated by anti-racist activist and trainer Erika Thorne, Somatic practitioner Marie Michael, and cultural worker, musician and composer Mankwe Ndosi.
