Andrea Swinton, of Education Resources for Living, hosts Multicultural Differences in America Awareness Sessions to bring people together in a culture of knowledge, wonder, and freedom. The framework she presents allows people to be themselves and engage in conversations that are sometimes complex yet new and inviting. Many people return to participate in additional Awareness sessions. Participants who are interested in taking MDAA to the next level participate in our MDA In Depth workshops.

MDA In Depth is for those interested in having a direct impact on race relations beyond Awareness. 

Registration is required through the MDAA website. The group will be meeting at Big Blue Marble the 2nd Tuesday of every month - they meet at other locations in the area throughout each month.

Philly Poetic Resistance is a new group, meets monthly for an evening of sharing poetry and resistance!  They'll be meeting on the 4th Thursday in September, then switching to the 4th Tuesday. Bring a poem (your own or just one you love) on each month's theme. Philly Poetic Resistance is a group of poets and people who love poetry, who believe in the power of words to repair the world and bring into being a gentler, more just society. All are welcome!

Poetry Is Not a Luxury is a monthly book club led by Elliott batTzedek, MFA. Together we'll be reading the best contemporary poets, and exploring how they use their work to explore the most urgent social issues. Each month we'll focus on a different book, along with individual poems from other poets addressing similar issues. We will meet fourth Wednesdays of the month from 7:00-8:30pm.

July's book: Bright Dead Things by Ada Limon.
