Unpacking Whiteness is an online event that aims to explore the complexities of whiteness in our society. Join us for an engaging and thought-provoking discussion on the impact of whiteness on white people and multiracial folks.

We will be referring to Peggy McIntosh's "White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack" so that participants can delve into the history of their whiteness, its role in systemic racism, and how we can work towards dismantling it.

Don't miss out on this important conversation!

*This event is for white people & multiracial folks who are ready to engage with their personal stories and while learning from the article and one another*
