12:00 pmHard Conversations: A Deep Dive into Racism and its Undoing  FREE*
*Pay What You Can - This is Community-Supported Education, with universal financial accessibility. “Tuition” options for our courses are based on a modified gift economy model, in an effort to align our economics with our deeper values. If you can afford it, we invite you to contribute. The faculty and staff that produce and guide this course provide our content and care in a spirit of open-handedness and generosity. Providers of comparable programs, on average, charge 2-4 times as much and provide half or less of the content. (No, really!!!!) We ask that you take this to heart when considering your contribution. We, on the Hard Conversations crew, rely upon generous voluntary contributions of our allies (“accomplices” enabling our deeds, co-conspirators, “breathing with us”?). Our enemies and detractors will not support our work or keep us “in business.” We are committed to universal affordability in our programs. To help make this work, we are asking that course participants support our efforts at the highest level that is affordable for you. Your gift contribution from $50-$500 keeps us alive and teaching. To keep this work sustainable, we ask folks who can afford to contribute at the $100 “break-even” level, or more if you can. To give back to our communities, we tithe 10% of each participant’s fee to charitable organizations working for racial justice.
