SUMMARY:Virtual Racial Healing Circle in observance of Indigenous Peoples' Day
DESCRIPTION:In observance of Indigenous People’s Day\, join us as we take participants into a Racial Healing Circle Experience. This introductory circle will bring participants into the heart space by inviting us to tell our own stories\, to listen deeply to the stories of others by finding common ground\, and to embrace our common humanity when we see ourselves in the perceived other. When this occurs\, we build the trust that is necessary for courageous dialogue and the transformation of hearts and minds that shows up in what we say and do. This building model alternates between group conversation and one-on-one dyads\, aiming to offer a deeper practice than usual. Racial Healing Circles satisfy the unrecognized need of communal healing and shared liberation. \nClick here to register.
