Diverse Fort Collins Update: Week of Jan. 14, 2020

We have three talented facilitators – Jamie, Jessica and Mia – who will guide small-group conversations during our Jan. 26 Diverse Fort Collins book discussion of Chapters 1-4 of White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo.

Some groups will be geared toward teenagers, LGBTQIA+, people of color, etc. if there’s interest among attendees.

Join us at the accessible first floor meeting space of Wolverine Farm Letterpress & Publick House.

Our first gathering was a success!

Ten 10 community members attended our happy hour chat about Robin DiAngelo’s May 22 “Seeing The Racial Water” workshop at Naropa University in Boulder.

We learned about each other’s backgrounds and shared why we became interested in racial equity and anti-racist work.

Those who attended the workshop shared highlights and impressions, leading to thoughtful observations and questions.
