CALLING ALL WOMEN IN NY, NJ or PA!
Breaking Silences, Building Relationships:
A Dialogue with Jews, Blacks, Whites, and People of Color
Sunday April 15, 2007
Be Present invites you to participate in a journey that was started within our organization among Jewish, Black, and White women and girls. In 2006 this One-Day Community Training expanded to include men and boys. Join us in dialogue, as we each -- Jews of all races, Blacks, Whites, and People of Color -- take the risks to have the hard conversations about the impact of racism, antisemitism, gender, power, and class on our individual and collective well-being.
The key to being a dependable advocate, friend, and ally to ourselves and those we love is to recognize, understand, and overcome the fears of becoming visible and giving voice to what we know.
Participants will be introduced to the Be Present Empowerment ModelSM, which teaches how to know ourselves outside the distress of oppression and to truly listen to others in a conscious and present state. It enables us to build structures and systems in our families, communities, workplaces, and organizations that do not support the very oppressions we seek to eliminate, but rather embody shared visions of justice for all people.
