You already know of Dr. Ibram Kendi’s bestselling book How to Be an Antiracist. Dr. Kendi also wrote a board book for parents called Antiracist Baby. It is a deceptively simple rhyming book with nine steps to make equity a reality. We will focus on each step in turn. Please purchase both books by Ibram Kendi: Antiracist Baby and How to Be an Antiracist. We will be journaling in and out of class, so please have a dedicated journal for the class. “Antiracist baby is bred, not born. Antiracist baby is raised to make society transform.” See www.learnatnorth.org for textbook information. 15067 4/13/2022 - 5/11/2022 5:30 - 7:00PM 5 ses W Chang Online; Zoom $79 ANGELA DANE Angela is the author of Sabina Spielrein: The Woman and the Myth (SUNY Press), a Gold Medal winner for Adult Nonfiction by Foreword Reviews.

Women and Mythology

Ushered into the mainstream by Joseph Campbell, mythic narratives have the power to enliven and enrich our day-to-day experiences and dreams. Come journey to the African crossroads, learn about Greek goddesses, gather around for a folktale, watch a film by Maya Deren, sit in Frida Kahlo’s garden or be mesmerized by mystic poets. We will explore the literary, psychological, spiritual and cultural significance of an array of female-centric mythological narratives, images and historical persons. Each class focuses on storytelling as personal inspiration for writing and/or artwork. Bodywork, collage, music, meditation and optional group presentation will be explored. See www.learnatnorth.org for textbook information. 15022 4/18/2022 - 5/23/2022 6:30 - 8:30PM 6 ses M Dane Online; Zoom $129 Understanding Trauma

Through lecture, discussion and group interaction, students will gain a greater understanding of what trauma is and how it affects people, including their behaviors, thought processes and feelings. This will include viewing trauma in the short, intermediate and long terms. Much of the generally available information on trauma is misleading and simply inaccurate, so this course will provide a concrete definition of trauma and its different levels (i.e. the trauma continuum). Well look at the interventions, therapies and support that will most likely help persons impacted by trauma, and the potential limitations and risks with those efforts. We’ll address issues such as: symptom management versus healing, the role of diagnosis and advanced topics of cultural and intergenerational trauma. One outcome of the course is for registrants to more fully understand what it means for a practice or an organization to be truly “trauma-informed.” 16165 4/21/2022 - 5/26/2022 6:30 - 8:30PM 6 ses Th Sideman Online; Zoom $175

It was extremely practical and useful information presented in an accessible, thorough and well organized manner.
