“What Does It Mean to be White” Course
This virtual will start on May 23. It will meet Mondays at 7 p.m. for nine weeks, skipping July 4. It will meet for 1.5 hours.
This powerful course gives the gift of inner transformation.
The course takes a life-altering look at what it means to be white, using the words of Black writers and directors to give us a mirror. What makes the course transformational is the process that accompanies it, which includes a racial biography, art, silent meditation, and personal reflection.

While it does require work, that work creates meaningful change. The course asks for participants to do 1-2 hours of reading or viewing each week. I can send you the syllabus. The syllabus is mostly movies, but there is one short book and several short articles that are part of the curriculum.
