This packet is a chapter from the forthcoming book project, Recipes for the Beloved Community, spearheaded by Carolyn Griffeth and Jenny Truax. The exercises and resources in this packet were written and compiled by Jenny Truax unless otherwise noted. Many of them are adapted from the excellent “Dismantling Racism” workbook published by the Western States Center to more easily apply to intentional communities. The aftermath of Mike Brown and Ferguson provides a very teachable moment on the subjects of white privilege and structural racism. Following the shooting of Mike Brown and Ferguson, the St. Louis Catholic Worker hosted three weekly Anti-Racist Workshops for white people utilizing this material, and adding new readings and reflections as they came out. We are now starting to facilitate individual anti-racist discussions among neighbors, friends, and fellow employees, using these resources. We have been asked by African American-led organizations to talk to other white people about racism (our Catholic Worker community is 100% white.) St. Louis, like most places, is highly segregated, and we hope to help white people to better understand their fear, to grow more aware of their privilege, and to move to action for change. We hope you can use this as a resource to host your own Anti-Racist discussions in your community, whether it is a “Racism 101 for White People,” a “Racism and Structural Injustice,” or an ongoing discussion group focused on race and racism. Some folks are calling this our “Montgomery Moment”. Let's hope and pray we can live up to the dream this name implies.
