  We have been inspired by the words of the Dalai Lama – “Never give up. No matter what is happening, never give up. Develop the heart….”  Opening to connection, sharing creativity, speaking the unspoken, entering the unknown together are all ways we can keep unlearning white supremacy by practicing deeper collaboration together. 

  Phase 3  incorporates creative expression, ritual, and embodiment with our basic UNtraining practices and what's up in our lives. It's all happening in the space of community to support, sustain and challenge us to step into our full selves in these increasingly difficult times.

  Phase 3 of UNtraining White Liberal Racism is available to people who have been invited to join this group and who have completed Phase 1, Phase 2, and the Risk of the Self weekend. Phase 3 2026 will be led by Caren Ohlson, Ro Horton and Swan Keyes, with  members of the UNtraining teaching team and guest facilitator Rita Shimmin.

  Cost is sliding scale $900 to $2500. Payment plans and other arrangements are available. Let us know how we can support you to participate! 

  This program is on Zoom.  Contact: info@untraining.org.  510 235-3957

  If you are a past or current UNtraining participant who is Jewish, this event is for you!

  In the current UNtraining Phase 3, we are telling stories--wrenching stories--about the realities of our times as they touch us and our families.  Speaking and hearing truths brings us closer together.  If there is anything we need right now, it is to hold ourselves and others multidimensionally, not to yield to polarization that cleaves our Jewish families, our communities, and our world.

  Sunday, June 7 is an opportunity to connect, to re-connect. To speak truth and to celebrate our courage in the face of danger, fear, and outrage.  We will meet in person in the San Francisco East Bay from 1 to 5 pm with Rita Shimmin and me. We are asking for a sliding scale contribution of $50 to $250, no one turned away for lack of funds.

  PLEASE REGISTER BY TUESDAY, MAY 26

  If you have questions or want to be in touch, email Deborah at deborahmarks@gmail.com.  If you're a "yes" right now, please register here. Location and details will be sent as we get closer to the event.
