Through my leadership in both the White Noise Collective and Flying Over Walls over the past 14 years, I have been a part of developing curriculum on a variety of topics, centered in anti-racism, informed by principles of popular education (inspired by Friere), and with the goal of supporting collective movement toward a world free of white supremacy, patriarchy, heteronormativity and other oppressive ideologies.

This workshop explores the ways that two key concepts, white supremacy culture and the white savior complex, show up in the legal system.
What skills, tools and approaches are useful in encouraging white people to sustain balanced engagement with anti-racism/racial justice education and work? How can we cultivate resilience (as opposed to white fragility) in ourselves, our communities, and our movements?
In this interactive workshop, we will explore the ways that three key concepts, the Buffer Zone, white supremacy culture, and the savior complex, show up in the mental health field and the work of the helping professions.
What frameworks, tools, and interventions can support us to stay grounded in embodied awareness as we connect with friends, family, and others about challenging topics?
This workshop is offered to develop a shared understanding of cultural appropriation and its diverse impacts. We explore common patterns, effects on the community/culture of origin, and why this topic is so highly charged with meaning.
This workshop is designed to support those who identify as white (or as having white or light-skinned privilege) to deepen their awareness and turn with curiosity towards the discomfort of acknowledging the ways systems of oppression operate in all of our lives.
