Equity Chats: Join the Conversation April 5

At Daily Work, we believe in the power of meaningful conversations to drive growth and connection. Starting April 5, we will begin offering a monthly Zoom conversation as a space for reflection, learning, and community-building. Our plan is to read a book or article, watch a video or other media, or something else to ground the conversation each month. 

Equity Chats will be open to all and will provide a space for community members, supporters, staff, volunteers, and board members to engage in open discussions about racism and equity and how they impact all of us. We strive for a relaxed, come-as-you-are space where people of all races are invited and welcome. We aim to be honest and open with one another—gently pushing the boundaries of our thinking, questioning social norms, and inviting new perspectives. We believe in calling each other in, not out, creating space for growth rather than judgment. Over time, we seek to expand a set of shared norms that keep us accountable to this vibe and the community we’re striving to create. 

Interested in joining the Chat? 

What to Expect

  • A warm welcome from facilitators 
  • Round-robin check-in: How are you as a human?
  • Reflection on key takeaways from the materials -- the first conversation will be about the book "Hijab Butch Blues."
  • Open space for additional thoughts and questions

If you are worried about participating due to the cost of purchasing a book, please let us know. We are working to find a way to ensure everyone can participate.
