This online 5-part workshop is open to white female, trans and genderqueer folks** brought together by the Maine Environmental Education Association, Maine Math and Science Alliance, Southern Maine Conservation Collaborative, Maine Initiatives and The Ecology School.

How does internalized white supremacy in my body, emotions, spirit and relationships keep me from bringing my full self to ending structural racism?

Finding Freedom is a workshop that aims to deepen our individual and collective understanding of how we as white women are complicit with white supremacy, how we can make changes to live more deeply and consistently into our racial justice commitments, and how we can move ourselves and other people in our networks to join the fight for racial, economic and gender justice right now.

The workshop will take place October 16, October 23, October 30, November 6, and November 13 from 4-6:30pm, with 1-2 hours of grounding activity between sessions (readings, connecting with other participants, or small action steps). Participants must attend Session 1 in order to participate in future sessions.

**All women and gender expansive, nonbinary and trans workshop participants, as well as mixed-race and white-presenting people of color, who are interested in exploring their personal intersections of white womanhood and white supremacy are welcome to join us. The categories of “white” or “woman” might not be exactly how you define yourself, and many workshop participants who don't fit those labels neatly have gotten so much out of this space.
