White Fragility (R. DiAngelo)
WHO?
The White Awake Study Group is for anyone who identifies as "white" who wants to learn more about the realities of unconscious racism and the unintended impacts of white privilege so that we can consciously contribute to racial justice rather than unconsciously perpetuating patterns of racism.

WHAT?
We were born to privilege. It's not our fault.
We gather with other whites to create a space of learning without causing more harm. We hold the Shambhala Buddhist values of "basic goodness," bravery, gentleness, kindness, and understanding at the center of our study.

WHEN? Once a month, over the course of a year, we will be studying anti-racism through reading, contemplation, and discussion. Drop-ins are always welcome! More
