Our Goals
-
Position white women and genderqueer folks to influence other white people in our existing roles with family, friends, and coworkers around racial justice.
-
Shift approaches to racial justice training from shaming and transactional to liberating and transformative.
-
Build skills, courage, and support networks to organize for racial justice.
-
Dream of what liberation feels like in our bodies and spirits, far beyond the white supremacist, patriarchal, and classist systems we’ve been colluding with.
