FACILITATOR
TRAINING
Build the wisdom of Holistic Resistance into your anti-racism work in your community.
Become a Holistic Resistance facilitator.
Learn how to ask your own questions, organize your own events, emphasize song and embodiment, and facilitate in a way that disrupts racism rather than adds to it.
Build your capacity and resilience for asking difficult questions. Build relationship around anti-racism for life.
We will use Zoom video calls, in-person gatherings, and one-on-one phone calls to further our thinking, leadership, and community resilience around this work.
