2nd Saturdays – 1/14/12
UnEqual Opportunity: Understanding White Privilege
2800 SE Harrison St.
Time: 5:30pm till 10pm

How do we build real community? America is “The Melting Pot” and is not like any “traditional village” -which tended to be very homogenous. Today our communities are diverse. Our political and financial institutions, too often guided by greed, have over the history of our country embedded privilege in some groups where it is not always apparent, especially to those who have it. If true peace, justice, liberty, or freedom are to be served – if *real* community is to be forged – we need to face this embedded privilege and understand how it impacts our daily lives. This 2nd Saturday is an invitation to go deeper into the heart of building community together.

We will be accompanied by some very special speakers, Eleyna Fugman, Ashish Bauron, and others who will open up and explore this enlightening subject.  We will begin the evening with a cross-cultural potluck, so please bring you favorite ethnic dish to share with the group. Foods from your own cultures are encouraged too, including those of the European descent, if you choose. There is a donation requested for use of the building and supplies. We look forward to seeing you all there.
