Dismantle Collective

<H2>It’s time to have a family meeting.</H2>
The objective of this event is to provide a space for people of color and white allies--including activists, policy-makers, business leaders, employees, community organizers, or other residents or community members --to have an explicit conversation about dismantling systemic white supremacy (and the many discussions that come up around white supremacy) in a community-led forum.
This event is critically important because we believe that naming, disrupting, and dismantling white supremacy is a necessary precondition to creating an inclusive economy that works for everyone.
<H2>This event will be an Unconference.</H2>
An Unconference empowers the attendees to drive the conversation. There will be no keynote speakers or pre-set “content tracks.” The people who show up for the Unconference are the ones who decide what topics and sessions they want to organize.
Please note that we will have security for this event. See our <A HREF="http://www.dismantlecollective.org/the-unconference/" TARGET="_blank" TITLE="The Unconference" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">conference page</A> for more details about our approach to safety.
