Beyond Good Intentions: An Anti-Racism Workshop for White Allies in Faith-based Organizations

Beyond Good Intentions is a four-day workshop designed to provide a context for white people to educate ourselves about white racism and white privilege, hold each other accountable, and demonstrate good faith as we seek to build genuine and lasting alliances with people of color. Beyond Good Intentions is intended to supplement, not substitute for, contexts where people of diverse races strategize and work together to dismantle racism.

The workshop will be lead by Julia Watts Belser and Melanie Morrison at the Leaven Center in Lyons, MI.  Melanie has graced GLAD by speaking at a previous annual event.
