OK, Let's Get Talking: Race and Sex

• Do you long for open, authentic discussions about race but have difficulty finding others equally interested?

• Do people tell you that you're "just too sensitive" when you bring up topics of race?

• Do you read at least one article each week on the topic of race?

• Do you wish you could do more to repair racial harm than just talk about it?

If you answered, yes, yes, yes, and YES, then EmergentSee Dialogues is for you!
We meet monthly to have deep, honest discussions about race with the goal of racial reconciliation and reparation. We look at institutionalized racism and white privilege, observe our roles in them, take personal responsibility, and work to dismantle these systems.

Our Mission: The multi-racial EmergentSee Collective formed in 2008 to reveal and correct white privilege and racial oppression. In our work with individuals and groups, participants learn to recognize their roles in systems of oppression and institutionalized racism. As individuals take personal and social responsibility, they experience the humility and contrition required to repair racial harm. EmergentSee Collective inspires and supports individuals to make personal reparations and work toward institutional reparations.
