SUMMARY:Speaking Down Barriers Learning Us: The Need To Be "Qualified"
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Monday\, March 21st from 6pm-9pm for this month’s Learning Us. You can register for this virtual event by using the following link and choosing “March 21st Learning Us”: \nThe focus of this month’s discussion will be on the need to be “qualified” within the concepts and characteristics of white supremacy culture. This idea of qualifying can be applied to pretty much any scenario one can imagine. Within white supremacy it can be used as a tool of oppression\, discrimination and justification of exclusion very easily. But why? \nJoin Krista Hughes and Naomi Simmons as they facilitate this discussion this coming Monday starting at 6pm! \nLearning Us is a racial affinity space for white folx to rethink and dismantle oppression\, explore their whiteness\, concepts of white supremacy and work to transform patterns of dominance into shared power and mutuality.

SUMMARY:Speaking Down Barriers March Community Gathering: What Is Equity?
DESCRIPTION:Join us on March 7th at 6pm for our March Community Gathering! You can register for this event by using the following link and choosing ‘March 7th Community Gathering’: \nhttps://linktr.ee/SpeakingDownBarriers \nOur month long theme for March is our mission statement: Equity for All! So it is only fitting that our discussion be centered on the question “What is Equity?” \nThe word equity has become a common term in conversations surrounding racism\, inclusion and diversity. Equity is defined as “the quality of being fair and impartial” but it is far more nuanced than that. How can we achieve “equity for all” in a society where marginalized groups are often not considered when it comes to access of resources\, fair economic practices\, education\, etc.? How does equity and intersectionality co-exist? We will consider these topics and more during our discussion! Will you join us? We encourage you to do so!

SUMMARY:Speaking Down Barriers Healing Us: Equity for All Black Lives
DESCRIPTION:Join us this Friday for Healing Us\, A Black Autonomous Space! Our theme will be ‘Equity for All Black Lives’\, continuing our month long theme of Equity for All. You can register for this free virtual event by using the following link and choosing ‘March 4th Healing Us’: \nhttps://linktr.ee/SpeakingDownBarriers \nHealing Us is a racial affinity space for Black folx to heal and engage wholeness. Current events in the Ukraine have not only been affecting native Ukranians but also Black foreign students. Reports and first hand accounts have spoken of racism and discrimination at the borders as these students try to flee from the conflict. This was also seen in our own country late last year as Haitian immigrants experienced harsh treatment at the Texas/ Mexico borders as they tried to seek asylum\, fleeing natural disasters\, poverty and political turmoil. \nIf equity existed for all Black lives right now\, what would the aforementioned situations look like? Why are Black people around the world treated as less than\, even in situations where multiple racial groups are experiencing the same hardships? How can Black people continue to find ways to heal under these circumstances? How does global anti-blackness play into these and other situations? We will discuss these questions and more this Friday! We look forward to see you all in the virtual space!

SUMMARY:March Campaign Celebration - 31 Days of Awareness
DESCRIPTION:March is Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month. To help raise awareness our goal is to fill up the March calendar with locally-owned business partners. We will encourage community members to visit their stores/companies and in return the business owners will support us! We are having a wonderful response by local merchants who are participating by either choosing a day(s)\, week or the entire month to host what we are calling a “give back” day(s) to the CLC Foundation. We are so thankful for the support of small businesses and excited to urge everyone to support them as well. Essentially\, these businesses are making “Dreams Possible” for our 1\,500 individuals with special needs and disabilities right here in Spartanburg County. We like to call our partners “Community Champions” and we appreciate their commitment to help us spread awareness and raise funds. This campaign is a collaborative effort and we want to make sure all the locally owned businesses in Spartanburg have a chance to participate. Like the saying goes\, it’s the gift that gives back and right now… everyone helping us is a gift!
