SUMMARY:Afro Cuban Roots: Dances of the Deities
DESCRIPTION:We’re back with another great one time dance work shop!\n\n\nAfro Cuban Roots: Dances of the Deities \nOver the decades\, the island of Cuba has given us many social rhythms and dances\, such as the cha-cha-cha\, bolero\, mambo\, salsa\, and more. Additionally\, numerous sacred dances have evolved from the spiritual tradition of Lucumí\, better known as Santería. \nWith its roots in Nigeria\, this religion is based on the interplay of a pantheon of deities associated with natural phenomena such as thunder and lightning\, rivers\, and oceans\, as well as human attributes. These deities\, properly known as orishas\, express themselves through distinctive dance movements and imagery. Performed to specific rhythms\, these dances reveal the true nature of Cuban culture and its African roots. \nOur instructor\, Selah Thompson\, well-versed in West African dance\, has studied and performed Cuban orisha dances for many years. Come join us for this one-of-a-kind dance experience! Live drumming will be provided by Soundz of Africa.

SUMMARY:Is There a Cure for Racism?
DESCRIPTION:Can a new perspective on the root cause of racism help us finally discover a cure? \n\n\n\nIs racism\, at its core\, actually a moral and even spiritual disease that will require more in addition to just changing laws and reforming institutions? Does the cure to finally eradicate it also demand profound changes in how we think and see each other\, ultimately requiring a transformation of hearts? \n\n\n\nAlmost no aspect of our society is untouched by racism. Laws have been changed and some progress has been made\, but how far can those solutions take us on their own? After slavery came Jim Crow. After Jim Crow came mass incarceration and institutional racism. Attempts at remedies through Reconstruction and the Civil Rights Act were not enough – the disease simply found new ways to thrive\, mutating its form to infect our education\, judicial\, health\, economic and other institutions and systems in ways – overt & covert – that continue to persist today. \n\n\n\nSo what else is called for? Is a spiritual remedy also needed to help heal what is at its core a moral and spiritual disease? Humanity is not a collection of laws or social regulations; rather\, we are defined by our common nobility as spiritual beings. While finding strength in our “unity in diversity”\, might recognition of our essential oneness help bring about the transformation of human hearts that no change in law could ever achieve on its own? \n\n\n\nCome join a different kind of conversation – one that welcomes every perspective in a search for the truths that unite us all – as we discuss the spiritual perspective offered by the Bahá’í Teachings on the elimination of racism. Please join us for a lively discussion as we explore how centering our beliefs and actions on the oneness of humanity can lead to a restructuring of society that could finally cure the disease.
