About the event
Many of us have found ourselves asking “How can I serve and do good in the world now that I no longer participate in a church?” Before we begin to answer this question, we need to examine how white Christianity typically has adopted “charity” in a way that is more self-serving and performative than helpful. In this workshop, we will learn from Jakey Siolo about the harmful tenets of white Christian charity and how mutual aid is the solution to empowering others and breaking down systems of injustice. We will learn how to get involved in mutual aid work, and how to use activism to empower underserved communities.
