Becoming Beloved Community Racial Reconciliation and Anti-Racism Training
This six-week dialogue workshop and training, offered by Bexley Seabury, is led by Kaleidoscope Institute (KI) facilitators and is designed to help us embrace and enact the vision of Becoming Beloved Community, which is a lifelong spiritual and faith journey. KI believes change happens in the space between comfort and fear – what Eric Law has described as the Grace Margin. Our work is based on respectful communication, building relationships where persons can change and learn in developmentally appropriate ways. This workshop and training is intended to satisfy the Episcopal and other denominational Canonical requirements for all lay and ordained leaders to participate in anti-racism training. It includes exploration of historical and contextual instances of oppression and racism in which we all participate. We use models and processes to explore bias, power, and the systems of injustice and inequality. Our disciplines include:
dialogue,
noticing and wondering together,
questioning assumptions,
telling the truth about ourselves and our organizations,
modeling alternatives to current patterns and problems.
We provide guided opportunities for personal reflection (Handouts), asynchronous group reflection and interaction (Threaded Discussions), and synchronous group interaction (Zoom web conversations)
The sessions will take place on April 4, April 11, April 18, April 25, May 2 and May 9 from 4pm-6pm Pacific/7pm-9pm Eastern.
