DESCRIPTION:Working as a white ally against racism is hard but not impossible.  One thing that doesn’t help the cause is saying “I don’t see color.”  The failure to see color only benefits white America.  A world without color is a world without racial debt.  Rather\, the most radical action a white person can take is to acknowledge privilege\, to admit that in the institutional and deep psychological structures of the United States\, the underlying assumption is that white lives are worth more than black lives. \nHelp the Center for the Healing of Racism develop better allies by participating in a dialogue about the book Tears We Cannot Stop: A Sermon to White America by Michael Eric Dyson.  Dr. Dyson is a Professor of Sociology at Georgetown University\, an ordained minister\, author of 20 books\, a writer for the New York Times\, and an editor for both The New Republic and ESPN’s The Undefeated Ebony.\n\nPlease join us on Tuesday\, August 29\, 2017 from noon to 2:00 pm -or- Wednesday\, August 30\, 2017 from 6:30 to 8:30 pm.  The events will take place at 3412 Crawford Street (corner of Holman)\, Houston\, TX 77004.  The events are free and open to the public but registration is required.

SUMMARY:Race: Power of an Illusion
DESCRIPTION:The Center for the Healing of Racism presents “Race: The Power of an Illusion\,” a powerful three-part documentary series that explores the phenomenon we call Race.  Each weekly session begins with the screening of one of the three episodes of the series\, originally aired by PBS in 2003.  Each week’s screening will be followed by a dialogue about the ideas presented in the film.  “Race – The Power of an Illusion” questions the very idea of race as biology\, suggesting that a belief in race is no more sound than believing that the sun revolves around the earth.  \n \nThe series will be held at the Houston Baha’i Center\, 2419 Fannin Street\, Houston 77004.  The dates are as follows:\n \nEpisode 1\,  August 2 — 7-9 PM:  “The Difference Between Us” examines the contemporary science – including genetics – that challenges our common sense assumptions that human beings can be bundled into three or four fundamentally different groups according to their physical traits.\n \n\nEpisode 2\,  August 9 – 7-9 PM:  “The Story We Tell” uncovers the roots of the race concept in North America\, the 19th century science that legitimized it\, and how it came to be held so fiercely in the western imagination. The episode is an eye-opening tale of how race served to rationalize\, even justify\, American social inequalities as “natural.” \nEpisode 3\,  August 16 – 7-9 PM:  “The House We Live In” asks\, if race is not biology\, what is it? This episode uncovers how race resides not in nature but in politics\, economics and culture. It reveals how our social institutions “make” race by disproportionately channeling resources\, power\, status and wealth to white people. \nThis series is free and open to the public. Registration is required and limited to the first 60 registrants. Reply to email cfhr1@juno.com or Call 713-520-8226 and leave your name and contact information.

SUMMARY:“Vincent Who?” - Birth of the Asian American Civil Rights Movement
DESCRIPTION:The 1982 murder of Vincent Chin\, a 27-year-old Chinese American\, marked the birth of the Asian American civil rights movement.  When Chin’s killers\, two white autoworkers\, got off with a $3\,000 fine and probation\, Asian Americans throughout the United States were outraged. Their protests gave rise to a pan-Asian identity and solidarity that hadn’t existed before\, as well as a broadening of federal civil rights protection.\n \nIn commemoration of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month\, the Center for the Healing of Racism will screen the documentary “Vincent Who?” on Thursday\, May 18\, 2017 from 7 to 9 PM.  The film will be followed by a dialogue.  Location: 3412 Crawford Street (at Holman)\, Houston\, TX 77004. The event is free and open to the public (first 45 to RSVP). Donations are encouraged. Registration required by emailing cfhr1@juno.com or calling (713) 520-8226.

SUMMARY:Annual Juneteenth Ally Award BBQ Lunch
DESCRIPTION:The Center for the Healing of Racism Presents \nThe 22nd Annual Juneteenth Ally Award Bar-B-Que Luncheon THE COLOR OF FORGIVENESS When: June 18\, 2016 Where: 1800 Sul Ross\, Pecore Hall Time: 12:00 PM RSVP by calling: 713-520-8226 or Emailing: cfhr1@juno.com \nDonation: $50.00 \nMeet Yusef Salaam\, 2016 Ally Award Recipient On April 19\, 1989\, a young woman in the prime of her life was brutally raped and left for dead in one of New York Cityís most iconic spaces\, Central Park. Five teens from Harlem – four black and one Latino – were tried and convicted of the crime\, the accused teens became known collectively as the “Central Park Five.”  One of those boys\, Yusef Salaam\, was just 15-years-old when his life was upended and changed forever. In 2002\, after the Central Park Five spent between seven and 13 years of their lives behind bars\, the sentences of the boys-now men-were overturned. \nYusef eagerly shares his story with others. In speaking out against injustice\, he conveys the importance of continuing oneís educationówhether formal or otherwise. He also touches on the effects of incarceration and the disenfranchisement of economically disadvantaged people and its overwhelming effects on both their families and the community at large. Yusef also advocates for drastic policy changes relating to the prison industrial complex. He is a firm proponent of video surveillance in all police interactions with so-called suspects\, banning solitary confinement for juveniles and staunchly opposes capital punishment.
