<H2>Sunday Night Diversity Dialogue An AGPS Quarterly Book/Film/Discussion Group Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack: Navigating Systems of Power and Privilege</H2>
"Privilege exists when one group has something of value that is denied to others simply because of the groups they belong to, rather than because of anything they've done or failed to do." -Peggy McIntosh, Invisible Knapsack
Ani Mirasol, LCSW will host this discussion, utilizing readings from Marilyn Frye  and Peggy McIntosh to guide our exploration of how privilege, structural oppression, and intersectionality are woven into the foundations of our society and, by extension, our therapy groups. Participants will have the opportunity to talk through the ways group leaders can address these issues when they arise overtly or covertly in our groups.
Charge:  There is no charge for this event.
Note:  This is a members only event.
Hosted by:  Ani Mirasol, LCSW - AGPS Diversity and Inclusion Committee
