Racism is a permanent mechanism in our society. It requires group efforts to keep it going, but also to eradicate it.
Our Divest Whiteness course aims to create a space for you to process the challenges of living in a white supremacist world, and think strategically about what you need to do in order to divest from it.
I’ve done the anti-racism course. I've read the books... Where is my community of people committed to divesting from whiteness?
When you realise you can no longer be complicit in racist systems, when you need strategies and an active community to work against them, you can come here.
Space to think. Space to learn.
Researchers have found that socialisation in the UK has often involved avoidance of race talk and ‘not noticing’ ourselves as racialised beings. It leaves us ill-equipped to hold our feelings about race and engage strategically in challenging the idea of whiteness.
Divest Whiteness will give you the chance to:
Anchor and explore challenges around race and whiteness.
Interrupt white supremacy.
Recalibrate who you are with who you want to be.
Show up for yourself and others in better alignment.
What happens when I talk about whiteness?
I ground myself
I stop gaslighting myself
I understand what I am dealing with
I question
I align action to beliefs
I respond to feedback about my internalised superiorities and inferiorities
I challenge more people in a range of ways more often
l connect to people
I understand the world as a racialised place
I speak back to my inner saboteurs
