Their training was spurred by an April incident in which employees at a Philadelphia Starbucks store asked the police to remove two black entrepreneurs who were waiting for a business contact. More recently\, Lancaster City Police used a taser on an unarmed Black man who was cooperating. This was caught on video and has spurred action. \nBut what about the everyday indignities\, harms and unconscious biases that go unnoticed and largely unintended? \nDr. Kemp’s Racial Bias Awareness and Prevention Training offers: \n\nTools to have productive conversations about racism;\nWays to recognize and stop actions driven by unconscious bias;\nGreater understanding of institutional racism;\n5 steps to make your businesses\, organizations\, and communities more inclusive and equitable.\n\nNote while this is an introductory workshop in many ways\, participants will be given opportunities to continue learning and practicing skills gained previously. Participants who have engaged in this work regularly will have much to offer those new to the work. It is an opportunity for all participants to expand the ways we know ourselves and each other.   \nRegistrants will be given pre-work to prepare for the presentation. \nRegister here (at Concord Quarterly Meeting event page.) \nWe also recommend the Stop the Hurt 5 Day Challenge or go to www.dramandakemp.com for Dr. Kemp’s book. \nFor more information on Dr. Amanda Kemp\, please check these links:\nFounder of Theatre for Transformation\nWatch “Make America Great Not the Land of Hate Again” Music video\nTEDx Talk “How to Lean into Conversations about Race…”\nwww.dramandakemp.com

SUMMARY:2025 Joint Nakba Meorial
DESCRIPTION:“The Joint Nakba Remembrance Ceremony is a unique opportunity to\ncommemorate the pain and tragedy of the Nakba (“catastrophe” in Arabic)\, when\nin 1948 more than 700\,000 Palestinians were forcibly expelled from their homes\,\nbecame refugees\, and had their villages and cities destroyed. In Israel\, even\nmentioning the Nakba is completely taboo; however\, Combatants for Peace\nbelieves that peace and reconciliation involve a sincere and honest reckoning with\nthis history that didn’t end in 1948 but continues until this day.” \n\nAn opportunity to view this hour-long ceremony in community with others:  \n  \nThursday\, May 15 1:00pm – Westtown Meetinghouse at Westtown School \n215 Friends Meeting Lane\, West Chester – Use the East Entrance and park in the lot on the right \nfor East Entrance use 960 Shady Grove Road\, West Chester – walk down East School Lane to the stone Meetinghouse
