Beyond White Allyship

Beyond White Allyship:
Experiential Learning + Healing In Sisterhood

My beloved White Sister...

I'm so glad you're here. This step alone shows that you're up for some support and real talk as we face another Trump Presidency and beyond.

I GOT YOU.

In this 10-Week Container, I'm going to facilitate teaching, discussion, somatic movement and Q&A in community that will shift the way you see your impact as a White Woman in America and in the world.

I know you care.

I also know that you have blind-spots that can paralyze your active participation in creating a sane and equitable world. I have them too.

I'm not a historian.

I am a White Woman who's invested a lot of time and energy in understanding the impact of Whiteness - my own in particular. I build communities of Sisterhood and can facilitate like a mother-fucker. My commitment is to show up imperfectly as a proud learner and a humble teacher.

Let's do this together.

"What can I do?"

This is the question I hear most often from the brilliant, accomplished, competent White Women in my life whenever there is a racial reckoning in this country. Here we are again.

"What can I do?" is an easy question.

In this gathering we will focus on one that is more nuanced and more important:

"Who have I been? And why..."

When we understand how and why we have been conditioned to uphold and endorse a Racist, White-Centering, Woman-Loathing Patriarchal World Culture, we can begin to move past our ignorance and shame. We can finally stop performing and pretending.

We can move Beyond Allyship and become truly engaged participants.

It's time.

Is Calling Myself An Ally Enough?

Please watch this video clip from a recent gathering with MJ and other White Women to understand what Performative Allyship looks like and how we are trained to play it safe, keep it perfect, and protect Whiteness at all costs. Keep Breathing.

Video length: 11 minutes 22 seconds

Together we will:

Learn through Book Readings, Discussion, Research, Q&A in Community
Create a safe courageous space for truth-telling and question-asking as we look directly into the impact of White Supremacy Culture
Learn tools and practices that clear our emotional charge - Shame, Grief, Rage, Hope, Overwhelm - so that we can engage without exhaustion.
Navigate the next 4 years and beyond with Sisterhood and Support.
Understand types of activism / engagement and find the appropriate lane for you so you can step into more active participation that is aligned and exciting.
Listen to Women of Color who support this training and want to be a part of the experience as “guest speakers”
Look at ourselves with Relentless Honestly while practicing Relentless Self-Approval in Sisterhood.

I'm in.
