About this event

Unpacking Whiteness Workshop
Thursdays, 10am to 12pm eastern time
A 7-week Series

October 26 - December 14, 2023
(Skips Thanksgiving week)

This extremely popular workshop is back!  Don't miss out!

   "Life Changing!  "I thought I knew a lot about racism before the workshop, but I learned so much more."  "One of the most incredible offerings from TTN ever. I will never think the same way again."
Members and non-members are welcome.  Encourage your female friends (50 & forward) to experience this impactful workshop.

Our country continues to wrestle with divisive politics, health disparities, climate change, women's rights, voter suppression issues, and violence. All these issues are alarming to us, but impact people of color much more significantly.

This workshop explores the topics of white privilege, systemic racism, allyship, micro-aggressions, stereotypes and reparations in a unique, safe and non-judgmental way. Because we are intentionally focused on understanding the advantages we accrue simply because of the color of our skin, the program is specifically targeted for women who identify as white. 

Carefully selected weekly materials take us on a progressive journey together.  Utilizing a deep listening format that enables every voice to be heard, we share our stories, experiences, and feelings in a respectful, confidential manner with classmates from different background
s. 

What previous participants have to say about this workshop:
"A profound, exceptional class.  I can't imagine it won't change you forever."
"It was very thought provoking and eye opening into a subject I "thought" I understood."
"The class provided a safe place to discuss our own experiences.  With the knowledge I gained, my entire point of view changed."

A variety of days & times are offered to accommodate your schedule.  Check your calendar and choose the workshop series that works best for you.
