[AWARE-LA] Reminder - Potluck on September 11th instead of Saturday Dialogue

[Jason David]

Greetings AWARE-LA:

    

   Just wanted to remind everyone that we do not have a Saturday Dialogue this month. Instead, we are excited to host a social gathering this Sunday, September 11th, from 4-7pm. Debbie, Ken and Lisa Winters have been generous enough to offer their home at 21317 Nashville Dr. Chatsworth, CA 91311.

   AWARE will provide a few snacks, but we would greatly appreciate everybody bringing a little something to contribute as well.

   Unlike our Saturday Dialogues, this is not a space only for white folks. Please feel free to invite white friends or friends of color - a direct conversation about what AWARE is and why you choose to be a part of it might be part a healthy invitation :)

   PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE... RSVP if you plan on coming. For those that have RSVP'd thus far, thank you, we look forward to seeing you. If you are planning on coming but have not  yet emailed, please do so. We want to have an idea of how many folks will be attending. You can respond directly to this email or to jason....@gmail.com.

   Thank You!!!

 

ALSO, please follow the link below to find a very interesting article about some long-standing white anti-racist work being done in Seattle. It is amazing to see how similar our work in LA has been to theirs! Thank you Ariana for forwarding the article!
