For this learning path, you will participate in the 4 virtual learning sessions and be enrolled in one of three Racial Affinity Groups:

1) People who identify as People of Color (Black, Indigenous, Asian, Hispanic)

2) People who identify as Bi-Racial or Multi-Racial

3) People who identify as White

*More specific affinity groups may be formed upon the completion of course registration

We believe that it is important to do our own work with people with similar racial experiences to build capacity for cross-race dialogue that supports authentic relationships and deep belonging for everyone. We will ask you to self-select into the group that best aligns with your racial identity. We recognize that for some this is not a simple choice and we are available to have a conversation with you to support your selection.

Together we will:

• Reflect personally and collectively on the impact of embodied trauma, separation, scarcity and disconnection.
• Work in learning partners and/or small groups for the sake of holding each other accountable and deepening our learning through multiple disciplines.
• Engage in embodied practices for unwinding from the impact of racism in order to build stamina, capacity, and resilience.
