  • Reflect to Revolutionize – Critical Thinking Seminar

    The Loisaida Inc. Center 710 East 9th Street, New York, NY, United States

    The Reflect to Revolutionize workshops are devoted to practicing critical thinking and meaningful self reflection as pathways to liberating transformation. These facilitated discussions will shine light on the ways that oppressive systems and legacies of colonialism and slavery affect our daily lives and choices. We will rethink and redefine our notions of self, purpose, power and community. Our goal is to provide an active space where we confront our own trauma and fear in order to rise stronger as a collective.
