White friends, peers, and colleagues: I cannot say enough about and recommend the @awarela Unmasking Whiteness Institute. It was a challenging, nurturing, thought-provoking, life-changing experience for me. The topics, questions, discussions & exercises were brilliant &
the whole event was so meticulously paced, organized, & facilitated. (If you know me, you know I take great facilitation very seriously). I met other incredible white folks working in anti-racist & social justice organizing & felt a sense of community around this liberation work.
