Healing the Colonized Latinx Philanthropic Familia
Monday, November 18, 1:00 pm-5:00 pm
There is a growing interest by funders to understand the Latinx racial equity experience as a mechanism to inform resource distribution for social transformation. During this half-day workshop Latinx participants will work towards a unified way to talk about the intersection of social issues affected by paradigms rooted in colonialism; such as patriarchy, colorism, anti-Blackness, and anti-Indigeneity. This interactive session will identify how those phenomena permeate Latinx culture and perpetuate, often unknowingly, the very beliefs and practices that reinforce systems of oppression, inequity and racism present in philanthropy and the larger social sector. Moving from awareness to aligned action with others is the long-term work of HIP's commitment to increasing power, voice, and influence in philanthropy. For more information email Dr. Raquel Gutierrez at raquel@hiponline.org.
Free & Open for Latinx professionals at any level of power and role within philanthropy

Truth & Healing Circle: The Blanket Exercise
Tuesday, November 19, 9:30 am-11:30 am
Over the past 30 years, Native Americans in Philanthropy has become a powerful and continuously growing network of Native and non-Native nonprofits, tribal communities, foundations and community leaders. Now more than ever is the time to expose the TRUTH about the challenges Native people face in the United States. We also believe it is the right time to highlight and accelerate efforts being made toward HEALING from the historical and intergenerational trauma we continue to endure. This exercise leads people through a powerful educational and transformative exercise first developed by KAIROS in Canada to educate during their Healing decade. It is a historical narrative experience that quickly and effectively informs the participants about the truths often not told in our country about Native peoples and why healing work is so critical. This event will encourage partners in the philanthropic, non-profit, activist, youth and communities to pledge to share The Blanket Exercise in their own spaces nationally in the next year to help create Cultural Shift and Narrative Change.
Free & Open For All Attendees
