DIVERSITY AND INCLUSIVITY |
Oh look. There's the sun and the sea and the planet. This combination produced US. I believe that through combining the elements of all points of view and recognizing the equal validity of diverse perspectives, real change and real connection is possible.
I recognize that I am on unceded land of the Chelamela, Long Tom and Siletz tribes and that the wealth of the nation I live in is based upon an economy built on the enslavement of black Africans. What is to be done? I make all the training on this website FREE to those who are Black or Indigenous. That is all I can offer in response to monumental and historical imbalance.
