Collaboraction's next live web episode of Becoming: Unlearning White Supremacy - Tuesday, May 4 at 6 p.m. CT - will welcome special guest Andy Swindler of OWMCL (Organizing White Men for Collective Liberation), a national network mobilizing white men to learn, grow and take action against white supremacy and patriarchy.

Swindler will join Collaboraction's Artistic Director, Anthony Moseley and Executive Director, Dr. Marcus Robinson, to share his experiences in restorative justice, working with OWMCL and The Chicago Mutual Aid Solidarity Network, and as Co-Founder and Chief Empathy Officer of FeelReal.

Together, they'll lead a live, interactive discussion around the theme "Taking Action and Building Community" with anyone looking to understand White Privilege, unlearn White Supremacy and support each other in being actively anti-racist moving forward.

Joining Becoming is free, but registration is required to receive the private Zoom invitation. Everyone is welcome. Becoming is ideal for ages 16+, or with guardian supervision for youth under age 16. Register at collaboraction.org.

Collaboraction is an ethno-diverse social justice organization that uses theater, digital media and performance to incite social change in Chicago and the nation around today's most critical issues. It presents Becoming, featured earlier this year on CBS Evening News, on the first Tuesday of every month at 6 p.m. CT. The program is live and not recorded to assure a safe space for open dialogue around White Supremacy.
