The Movement is growing, people are showing up in new and old ways in this city every day! Many of us have been together on the streets & using our collective power together. As we show up, we are learning that we will be required to gain new skills. We are also learning that the ways in which we naturally rush to action, as white people, can actually duplicate the culture of White Supremacy we are showing up to push against.

How do we show up in this Movement Moment, as white people?

 

Making room, listening, stepping back, centering & lifting up the voices of those who power refuses to validate… these are all skills that white folks, living in a culture of White Supremacy, will never come to naturally. They are new movement skills that we have to develop together.

 

If you are interested in that work, interested in SHOWING UP in this movement moment in new ways. Join Us.
