Our goal is simply to provide spaces for students, staff, and faculty to build community and promote healthy emotional and mental wellbeing. We believe this should take place within communities of color through dedicated affinity group space focused on intragroup healing from racial trauma. This space will provide affirming and empowering counterspaces for Black students and students of color.
Meetings will take place bi-weekly during the times and days provided below. We will begin the program via zoom and move to in person sessions when our new Center for Intercultural Life opens.
Please note: The initial groups are broad and diaspora based. Should additional groups be necessary please contact Cara Guilbeau cguilbeau@tulane.edu to set up a meeting and discuss how we can accommodate other BIPOC groups.

A Moment to Process - Ally Community Space
Join Ally faculty and staff to process your emotions collectively regarding the recent news out of Kentucky regarding the murder of Breonna Taylor, misogynoir and anti-Black racism in our society. This space is for allies and accomplices to process and find strategies to offer support and heal mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. We know that racism is rooted in dehumanization and we hope to use this space to reclaim our collective humanity through reflection and eventually, action.
