White Antiracist Practice Group

With Nichola Torbett

January 22, 2025

Six weekly sessions on Wednesdays, noon-1:30pm ET, with the next session running January 15-February 19, 2025

Are you a white person hungry for a kind community of support and accountability around your own antiracist practice? Are you ready to move beyond reading groups to make real changes to practices, policies, and systems?

This is our sixth series of a white antiracist practice group aimed at exactly that. (You can read more about how this idea arose here: https://kirkridge.org/why-havent-we-acted-sooner/ .)
As with previous series, the initial commitment will be for just six weeks, and then you’ll have the option to commit for six more, and so on. We’ll have different folks leading six-seek segments so that you can benefit from different approaches, which will include somatics, ancestor work, connection to land, storytelling, shared readings with discussion, ritual, and so on.

There will be a suggested donation of $60-480 per six-week session so that we can pay facilitators and also contribute to our Equity Fund that supports retreat access for BIPOC-led movement organizations and BIPOC activists. And, no one will be turned away for lack of ability to donate.

Note: All levels of experience are welcome.This group does assume that you know racism exists and are willing to look at how whiteness has shaped your own habits, beliefs, body, and unconscious tendencies in addition to strategizing about how to interrupt it in the world.  Let’s get our hands dirty together.
