We The People: True Stories About Race

Eliminating racism is a monumental task. We believe it starts with stories.

When we can look at our own stories with honesty and courage, and listen to one another’s stories with curiosity and heart, we have a much better shot at taking meaningful action towards creating a just and equitable world.

That’s what we’ve been doing in this 8-week storytelling workshop — digging for and sharing true, personal narrative stories about how race has played a part in our lives.  On April 24, we’ll share those stories with you.

Co-led by Johanna Walker, speaker, trainer, and host of Boulder’s Story Slam, and Darryl Piggott, LA-based educator, with a mixed-race group of storytellers from across the US.

Storytellers include: 

Carrie Sawyer
Kory May
Gage Evans
Mary Friedrichs
Tim Hillmer
Lola Adeyemo
Shani Raviv
Shene Randall

The suggested donation is $5-25. We’ll be donating a portion of the proceeds to The Chinook Fund, a funding organization that supports BIPOC-led, small, grassroots groups working towards economic & social justice.  We hope you can join us!
