ATTENTION: BSEC MEMBERS INTERESTED IN TRAINING TO BE COLLOGUY LEADERS!
We are having a training from 10AM-Noon on Saturday, Dec 3, 2017 This is an invitation for you to join us in the training.
What is a colloquy?
Colloquy is an opportunity to engage in deep listening and to develop compassion and understanding. We hope to get to know ourselves and each other more and to create a safe space for us to share our life experiences. A colloquy usually incorporates music, meditation, and quotes within the format of a sharing circle and around a particular theme.. Some examples of themes have been: Ethical Legacy; Earth Day Art Workshop in Honor of Mother Earth; Forgiveness; Gratitude; Personal Transformation; Occupy 2012; Meditation Techniques.
We hope that experienced colloquy facilitators will attend this training and take this opportunity to share with those newer to this form.
If possible, please attend the colloquy led by Jone Jonson Lewis on Nov 27, 2016 on the topic of “Story” to familiarize yourself with the colloquy form.
If you have any questions or wish to attend, please contact Tasha Paley at tashapal@gmail.com. Or phone her at 917 200 8451.

#HackingRacism focuses on disrupting status quo thinking, ferreting out how it reinforces & replicates resulting in systemic, institutional & structural racism. When people are purposely gathered to focus on these factors, they can, with increased facility, readily identify and examine the various forms of racism occuring in their everyday lives and at large in the general society.
OK, so let’s meet up and get busy!
All that we are missing is YOU!
