Maine 2024 Finding Freedom: White Women Taking on Our Own White Supremacy

from $0.00

Tuesdays, October 15-November 19 (skip Election Day), 4-6:30pm EST

with facilitators Dani Wilson and Susannah Bartlow

** This online 5-part workshop is open to white female, trans and genderqueer folks brought together Maine Environmental Education Association and Momentum Conservation.**

How does internalized white supremacy in my body, emotions, spirit and relationships keep me from bringing my full self to ending structural racism?

Finding Freedom is a workshop that aims to deepen our individual and collective understanding of how we as white women are complicit with white supremacy, how we can make changes to live more deeply and consistently into our racial justice commitments, and how we can move ourselves and other people in our networks to join the fight for racial, economic and gender justice right now.

The workshop will take place October 15, October 22, October 29, November 12, and November 19 from 4-6:30pm ET, with 1-2 hours of grounding activity between sessions (readings, connecting with other participants, or small action steps). Participants must attend Session 1 in order to participate in future sessions.

Is this workshop right for me?

All women and gender-nonconforming, non-binary and trans people, and all white and mixed-race folks, who are interested in exploring the intersection of white womanhood and white supremacy are welcome to join us. The categories of “white” or “woman” might not be exactly how you define yourself. This workshop may still be useful to you if you were socialized as a white female and/or you are perceived as one today.

This workshop focuses on United States history, context and current reality. People from outside the US are welcome to join us, as long as you understand we will be using a US-based frame.

What is the cost of the workshop?

The host organizations are excited to bring the workshop to Maine at a reduced price of $50 per person. You can also purchase tickets at $100, $200, or $345 (the standard full rate) to contribute to the cost of putting on the workshop. Cost should never be a barrier to your participation and a limited number of free tickets are also available.

Typically, Finding Freedom is offered on a sliding scale from $50-$345 per person, depending on class background and current income. If you’d like to learn more about Finding Freedom’s standard pricing, check out our Workshop Pricing Options page.
