The BIPOC Affinity Group will be a space for BIPOC-identified members to build community, vent grievances, and discuss change without needing to be mindful of white feelings or repercussions. The White Affinity Group will be a space to process white fragility and resistance to change, as well as learn how to be better accomplices to their BIPOC peers. Both spaces will be mindful and respectful of the intersections of gender, sexuality, religion, ability, size, and other marginalized identities throughout discussions. The groups will center trauma-informed and restorative justice practices.
