White Awake Study Group

The Los Angeles Shambhala White Awake Study Group is a group for anyone who identifies as white who wants to learn more about the realities of racism and the unintended impacts of white privilege so that they can consciously contribute to racial justice rather than unconsciously perpetuate patterns of racism. We gather with other white people to create a space of learning without causing more harm. We hold the Shambhala values of basic goodness, bravery, gentleness, kindness, and understanding at the center of our study.

 

This group is currently on hiatus.

Important Note:

Given the sensitive nature of our discussions and that people are willing to be open in their sharing, we ask that you have your camera and microphone functioning. Of course, there are occasional times when turning off the video or mic is appropriate. Thank you for your understanding.

Also, please consider creating a Shambhala account on the registration page (right side of the page) to receive the program’s Zoom meeting information immediately. This is especially important for participants who register close to the program start time.
