Topic: Racial Healing Workshop: Healing Practices and Perspectives: Moving from inclusion to transformative belonging
For this call, we want to encourage brave conversation. To that end:
We won't be recording the call, due to the nature of the content.
We request that participants commit to staying for the whole session (90 mins).
Our vision is to empower retreat centers in their commitment to racial equity. This process begins with honoring our experiences from the foundation that every living entity has learned to heal. We will access patterns within our culture to interrupt and/or nurture. As we incorporate new ways of being we will explore practical theories, not only for dismantling oppression, but also for regenerating new structures for sustainability. All theories must be embodied if there is hope for germination. At this stage, we will practice skills and strategies that are intended to grow our consciousness and capacity. Finally, we will maximize economic and social thriving through executing our transformative plans.
