OUR MISSION Our mission is to heal our racial divide. Our programs work to transform the ever-present energy of white supremacy that historically and still today permeates the culture, structures and policies of the United States. Our mission is to guide participants to “sit in the fire” of racial discomfort to process difficult, stuck, and inflamed emotions. We seek to eradicate anti-Black racist beliefs and the myth of white supremacy. We believe that conflict is a gift pointing toward meaningful change and healing and that every voice matters.

We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly affects all indirectly."  - Martin Luther King, Jr. "Letter from Birmingham Jail," April 16, 1963 "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." - George Santayana,1905 Friends, for hundreds of years in the United States, white supremacy fostered and perpetuated violence against Black people.  Now we must commit to examining our national history of using violence, murder, and terror to suppress Black lives.  To comprehend the depth of our racial divide, we must look into our hearts and minds.  Once we see, we can begin to move forward toward healing.   We believe that one may get to justice and resolution by confrontation with facts without shame or blame.
