The workshop was just the beginning...
 

Many people who took the workshop left with a new sense of clarity and a refined focus on how to approach acting in genuine antiracist allyship. However, they wanted more support and accountability in continuing to use the methods laid out in the workshop.

​

The course will help you truly embody allyship in your daily life!

​

Join fellow aspiring allies in a compassionate community of people "doing the work" to extract the talons of internalized white supremacy from their bodies, minds, and communities. See below for the meeting & topic agenda!

​

The course will be led by Angelina F. Gómez, M.A.

Course Activities

 

This course will consist of six 1.5-2 hour meetings. Meetings will be formatted similarly to the workshop, and will go in depth on the topics introduced. There will be a small amount of between-session "homework" including reading, watching videos, and self-tracking.

​

• Each session will include at least one grounding, mindfulness, or somatic practice.

• Specially curated information - including history, emotion and communication skills-development, and psychoeducation will be presented each session.

• A large portion of session time will be spent with group discussion.

• There will be scheduled opportunities for willing participants to share their personal story with racism & allyship, and receive healing and support from the group.

• Select sessions will include role-playing in small groups to practice having important and difficult conversations.

• We will be reading portions of "My Grandmother's Hands" by Resmaa Menakem and "Non-Violent Communication" by Marshall Rosenberg. Purchasing these books is optional (but strongly recommended!)

​
