Aware-LA/Alliance of White Anti Racists Everywhere/Saturday Dialogue
Saturday Dialogue (SD) is a gathering for white anti-racists who want to discuss issues of identity, community, privilege and racism in our lives with the intention to strengthen our practice as anti-racists in alliances, relationships, and interactions with people of color. Regular, recurring dialogues throughout the year focus on the intersections of multiple identities, including Race and Class, Sexuality and Race, and Gender and Race. Other workshops focus on relationships, Radical White Identity and Community, and issues such as police and the prison industrial complex, immigration, and gentrification. Together we’ll consider the work of building a white anti-racist practice a critical part of our radical care for the collective, the self, and relationship – within ancestral lineage, family, friendship, and community and invite you to share in a process of making this work visible as a cultural form and an indispensable part of the abolition of white supremacy.
