Mitchell Hunter and panelists: Gender Expansive Diversity, an Insider’s View
September 21, Tuesday, 6:30pm
 

Transgender/non-binary and gender expansive identified folx often start from a place of deep shame for being perceived as wrong in who they are.

Sharon Mitchell: The Structural Path from Division to Unity
September 22, Wednesday, 6:30pm
 

This presentation is based on the book by Isabel Wilkerson that shows through extensive research and compelling narrative how the United States of today, and historically, has been shaped by a rigid hierarchy of human ranking; a caste system, with systemic pillars, that influences peoples’ lives, behaviors, and the fate of our nation. As we understand the structure that divided us, we begin to see the path to unity.  Learn More

 

 

Cylvia Hayes: Sacred Economics: Creating a Beautiful Economy that Works for All
September 23, Thursday, 6:30pm
 

Find your niche as a creator in a new, saner, sacred economy that restores the planet and gives all humans a shot at a better way of making a living. Our current economic model, based on materialism, consumption and limitless growth, is wreaking havoc on Nature and keeping millions trapped in poverty or unsatisfying, dead-end jobs. There is a better way! The New Economy movement is robust and gaining momentum as more and more people, entrepreneurs, businesses and organizations say “enough is enough” and get busy creating healthier ways of making a living and doing business. In this session we will explore some of the current norms in our economic system that need a change-up, and we’ll dive into some of the exciting alternatives. We will explore how we help make the shift from an economics of separation to an economics of reunion, respect and love.
