The call for white people to “do the work” is a serious one. Not just because of the historical and present, pervasive and persistent, embodied and systemic impact of white supremacy on Black and Brown people, but because it threatens our democracy, our planet and our humanity as a whole. White supremacy is bad for all of us.  

Today we are embarking on UNLEARNING WHITENESS, a weekend intensive designed for well-meaning white people who are ready to heal from white supremacy, recover our whole selves and find our right role in the collective movement for liberation and wellbeing. Here's what Rev angel Kyodo williams has to say about it:

"Shame, blame and bypass are so 2010s. Join Kerri Kelly for an immersive online bootcamp to "detox" unhealthy beliefs and unlearn a social construct that impacts you without you even knowing. This is the strong medicine needed to breakthrough old paradigms with compassion for yourself." 

Healing from white supremacy calls us to explore how we've been shaped by toxic ideologies (ie: perfectionism, individualism, control, scarcity) and what it's going to take to heal our cultural wounds and transform into new ways of being. UNLEARNING WHITENESS is a community of practice for white people to support radical inquiry, excavation and recovery. Through embodied practice, embodied inquiry and courageous conversation, we will explore how we got here, where we are situated in unequal systems, how we’ve internalized dominant culture, what white supremacy is costing us and what our right role/responsibility is in getting free.
