*PARTICIPATION IN "COLLECTIVE PRACTICE TO END WHITE SUPREMACY" IS A PREREQUISITE FOR ENROLLMENT IN ANY OF STRONGHOLD'S FORMAL TRAININGS.

**THIS EVENT IS EVENT IS HELD EVERY SECOND WEDNESDAY OF THE MONTH.

“More than almost anything else, each of us yearns to belong. Within each human body is this deep, raw, aching desire. Here is what makes white-body supremacy so pervasive and so intractable: Beneath all the exclusion and constriction and trauma, white-body supremacy offers the white body a sense of belonging...We will not end white-body supremacy -- or any form of human evil --by trying to tear it to pieces. Instead, we can offer people better ways to belong and better things to belong to.” Resmaa Menakem, My Grandmother’s Hands

As white people, we are called not just to fight racism, but to take radical responsibility for it.

This is a moment to summon our collective outrage and channel it into courageous self-examination.

This is painful and critical work. And, we don't need to do it alone.

We can belong to each other in our shared commitment to transform the legacy of white supremacy.

We can rewrite the social contracts of whiteness to center accountability and action rather than silence.

This takes willingness, rigor and practice. This takes heart.

STRONGHOLD will host a space of reflection & practice for white-identified folks on WEDNESDAY February 10th from 5:30-7:30PM PST.

This space will be facilitated by Claire Whitmer, with Danya Axelrad-Hausman, Rachel Schaffran, Molly Reno & Beth Burzynski.

A ZOOM link will be sent to you 48 hours before the event.
