Events & Calendars Black Joy: A Restorative Storytelling Circle

Centering the Stories & Experiences of Black Students, Staff, Faculty, and Alumni
A lot is happening in the world right now for our communities of color. From the continued threat of police violence to the ongoing reality of systemic racism, it sometimes feels like our stories mainly come from places of pain, sorrow, and loss. Still, we know there is much more to our black experiences, like joy, connection, pride, and community.
Join Amherst College's Center for Restorative Practices as we host a Restorative Circle Centering the Stories & Experiences of Black Students, Staff, Faculty, and Alumni choosing a space to sit in circle together and share our joys. The goal of this space is to listen deeply, speak authentically, and bear witness to our stories of Black joy.

Facilitated by Fabio Ayala, Assistant Director for the CRP, and Jane Kungu.
