Workshops weekend 1 The Positionality Profile is a deep observation of how you show up into the world as a white person. It is to help you notice how you see yourself and how you are seen by folks of color. In the United States, we have powerful conditioning patterns that we are trained in from an early age. Oftentimes, the deep pattern creations for white oppressive systems start with our families. In the first part of this series, we are going to build a custom Positionality Profile for you as an individual and for your community that will help you identify old conditioned patterns that have been ingrained from early childhood and embedded in your community.
This is a powerful breakdown with Porsha and Aaron covering our POC housing project if you would like to get our best thinking on the intentional community , we are starting here in the Mojave Desert this is a good Episode to start with.
I am breaking down how critical it is that we unpack and understand that when a black person is chronically under-touched the damage that can be done and how we can think about it, dismantle it, and be productive in thinking well of those that are chronically under-touched.
