Mindful of Race 101
Racism remains one of the most rooted and painful impasses of our time. Racism is fed through unawareness, oppressive systems, and the misuse of power. The scars and history of racism impacts all of us, without exception. It impacts our capacity to genuinely love, and it blinds us to our humanity.
I invite you to join me for Mindful of Race 101, based on research from my bestselling book Mindful of Race. This introductory self-study course offers a compassionate and structured approach to exploring your racial programing.
In this course, we use the metaphor of the Rubik’s Cube to illustrate and help you remember the six core concepts of the Mindful of Race framework. The course shows you the complexity and dynamic of your racial conditioning and its impact on collective well-being. Just like solving a Rubik’s Cube, building racial awareness is a practice of commitment, patience, and discovery.
This is a course that many take again and again.
Engage the Inner Work of Racial Healing & Social Responsibility
The aim of this introductory course is to enliven your understanding of the Mindful of Race book, to stimulate greater self-awareness, and to provide you with a path that deepens your understanding and responsibility to social harmony.
Deepening our understanding of how we have been conditioned to think and react is at the root of racial harm and racial healing.
This course is introductory and includes approximately five video recordings (totaling 60 minutes), one audio instruction, and several readings, reflections, and exercises. Expect to commit from 4-8 hours on this contemplative, foundational course.
