Antidotes to White Supremacy Culture - What Do You Choose?

  Being and Belonging Meets Sunday, September Thirteenth       1:30 to 3 pm Many of us have been reading up on, discussing, Googling to learn more about racism, white supremacy, how to be an anti-racist.

On September 13, we'll begin to explore the ways that white supremacy culture shows up, for example, perfectionism, individualism, and either/or thinking.
