Everyday we see bolder reassertions of white supremacy in the world. Whiteness is not the problem. The supremacy of whiteness built into our institutional structures is the source of harm.

But how do you let go of the addictive qualities of such structural benefits? There is a history of white and white-adjacent folks letting go of white supremacy so that they can more deeply embrace liberation from the harsh expectations of that position and experience joy in connection with self and others. We invite white and white-adjacent folks to come join this movement.

A special Care-shop for Tapestry Group + Coralus members on Whiteness without White Supremacy: Exchanges for Liberatory Joy will take place on Wednesday, July 15, 2026 from 3pm to 5pm PT | 6pm to 8pm ET:

• Introduce you to “whiteness” as a legal structure in the United States and its adoption around the world
• Show the structural push towards assimilation into aristocratic British whiteness as the “default” and “dominate” world identity
• Highlight Dr. Tema Okun’s work on white supremacy cultural values
• Share examples of those who exchanged their white supremacy for Liberatory Joy (i.e. non-hierarchical and deep connection with self, others, their environments, and a higher purpose).

The focus of the Care-shop is on creating and sharing a portrait, visually or through storytelling, of a white person in your life who have also exchanged their white supremacy for Liberatory Joy. This individual will serve as a possibility model for your own journey of transformation.

Materials required:

• pencil, pen, and/or markers or paint (anything to write or draw with)
• large sheet of paper

• 20 minutes introduction and key concepts
