KUSANYA: “The Gathering,” A Racial Healing Circle

Sat, 12 Oct 2024 13:00:00 GMT → Sat, 12 Oct 2024 16:00:00 GMT (d=3 hours, 0 seconds)

The Anti-Racism Commission of the Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania's racial healing circles are free and open to lay and clergy who identify as African American. Facilitated by Lailah Dunbar-Keeys, this racial healing circle is intended to gather African Americans from the Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania community to discuss the ways in which systemic racism has affected American culture and has consequently impacted their lives. This particular racial healing circle is for an African American affinity group. Our intention is to convene a multicultural racial healing circle in the future.

Racial healing circles provide a safe space for a small group of participants to speak about, listen to, and subsequently heal from stories about race and racism. Some of the questions you will be challenged to consider are:

  • When did you first discover that you were a part of a racial group?
  • What messages did you learn from your family about your racial group?
  • What messages did you learn from society (mass media, school, church, etc.) about your racial group?
  • How did you cope with being seen as the “other”?
  • Could you share a story about a time when you felt powerful?

Each racial healing circle is limited to 20 participants. Register for more than 1 or all of the upcoming racial healing circles, scheduled for: Apr 13, Sep 14, and Oct 12, 2024.

For any questions about our racial healing circle series, please email The Rev. Barbara Ballenger ([email protected]), ARC co-chair.
