Processing Rage

Ji-Youn Kim

Cultivating more empowering relationships with our rage, in the pursuit of collective liberation.

<p>Anger is a mobilizing emotion that helps us confront injustice, danger, and unsafety.<strong> </strong>However, interlocking systems of oppression pathologize the anger of marginalized peoples to keep us small and passive, feeding us narratives that our anger is unproductive and/or violent. Black and Indigenous folks are further criminalized for their anger.</p><p>Join Ji-Youn at Processing Rage, where we’ll explore how to process our anger and rage in ways that feel more liberating and help us mobilize for social change. </p><p><strong>This webinar is open to everyone in the pursuit of social justice and collective liberation</strong>, although we will be centering the needs and experiences of BIPOC, and especially of women and gender non-conforming folks, who have had to (and continue to) navigate so much collective trauma, rage, and grief, especially in the past year of amplified racial violence and news coverage.</p><p></p><h3>TICKETS &amp; DONATIONS</h3><p>Registration is free for BIPOC and $100 for white folks. Donations and redistributions from white folks are also welcome and highly encouraged to cover for BIPOC attendees.</p><p>Proceeds will go towards Black and Indigenous healing and mutual aid, including <a href="https://www.sniwwoc.ca/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Support Network for Indigenous Women &amp; Women of Colour (SNIWWOC)</a>, <a href="https://vancouverblacktherapyfoundation.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">the Vancouver Black Therapy &amp; Advocacy Foundation</a>, <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-healing-for-sick-disabled-bipoc" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">the Sick and Disabled BIPOC Healing Group Fundraiser by Healing in Colour</a>, and a community member of the Nlaka'pamux Nation in Lytton, BC, to support her and her community.</p><p>If you wish to avoid Eventbrite fees for donations, please donate directly to the three organizations/funds.
