Anti-Racism Workshop: Solidarity with Natives
November 12, 2017 @ 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm
The third of three workshops 350 Seattle is hosting to advance us on ending racism in our work supporting climate justice. Led by Tara Villalba, Sweetwater, and others. While this first set of workshops is full, we encourage you to get on the waitlist for the next set of Anti-Racism Workshops at our website: http://350seattle.org/people-gonna-rise/
We will examine the idea of indigenous sovereignty and the history of the U.S. and tribal governments; concepts of settler colonialism and genocide (as distinct from racism); removal policies; and environmental Justice as part of de-colonization and restoring sovereignty.
Overall Goals:
1. Co-create and co-keep a space that is safe enough to have some charged
conversations about ending racism
2. Build relationships with other participants as we learn and commit to ending
racism, genocide, and war, in our environmental justice work.
3. Build a practice around convivio and encuentro
Come to all three if you can as they build on each other!
