The editors of Collecting Courage: Joy, Pain, Freedom, Love — Anti-Black Racism in the Charitable Sector are hosting, in partnership with Mazarine Treyz of Wild Woman Fundraising, a conference called A Path to Action.

From their website: The 2-day program demonstrates and advocates a different path to the way we can learn, act and move forward together. We can do this creatively. We believe that learning is both an individual and a collective experience. Therefore, we will embark on a learning experience by first examining and sharing our stories so that we can begin to see how our oppressions are linked. The various cultural wisdom that the creators pour into this learning experience will create for our attendees a rich multi-racial and intersectional experience.

Who should attend?
Individuals, Organizations and Groups who want to grow, learn and enrich their journey towards racial equity and justice by aligning values with behaviour.

Join us if you'd like to do a better job enacting racial justice in your life and organization. Join us if you want to continue to learn together for the collective benefit of our communities and organizations. We want you to walk your talk (and have fun too!)
