Details

Participants

Fire & Clay retreats are open to white individuals who have attended a Damascus Road Antiracism Analysis Training. Participants do not need to be part of an institutional antiracism team, though team members are especially encouraged to attend. Space is limited for each retreat in order to provide a more intimate setting for our work together.

Facilitators

Each retreat is facilitated by one or two experienced antiracism trainers and an antiracism chaplain. Facilitators bring years of experience in antiracism educating and organizing as well as expertise in congregational and institutional transformation. Each feels a deep commitment to working with other white people to understand our roles in perpetuating and dismantling racism.

Location

Generally, Fire & Clay retreats are held at a retreat center where participants can join together for meals, evening discussions, and early morning walks throughout the weekend.

Sponsoring Fire & Clay Retreats

If your group would like to sponsor a Fire & Clay Retreat close to home, please contact the Anti-Racism Program for more information. Sponsored events can be limited to members of your group, or open to any interested participants.
