Radical Unlearning Virtual Study Group
Join Abolition Journalism Fellow and author Lewis Raven Wallace for a two-part discussion on his book, Radical Unlearning: The Art and Science of Creating Change from Within, with special guests who are featured in the book!
A two-part reading group, taking place on Thursday, January 29th and Thursday, February 5th at 6-7:30 PM ET / 5-6:30 PM CT / 3-4:30 PM PT on Zoom
What creates the conditions to let go of deeply held beliefs and ideologies? How do we create fertile ground for thinking together about hard and polarizing topics like abolition, defunding the police, or Zionism? Interrupting Criminalization's Abolition Journalism Fellow, Lewis Raven Wallace, spent the past few years working on a book about how facts don't change our minds — and what actually works when it comes to shifting the beliefs and habits we carry from childhood. This tool is particularly useful for educators, media makers, organizers, and people trying to do the humbling work of making change in yourself and your immediate community.
You can access Radical Unlearning as an audiobook, ebook, or hardcover anywhere you get your books. Then, join Lewis and special guests to discuss, explore, and build skills and community focused on cultivating unlearning in our own lives. This is a two-part study and discussion group and participants are encouraged to attend both sessions and come having read or listened to the book already.
Registration is limited; apply by January 20 to secure your spot for both sessions!
And/or: ask your public library to start carrying this book!
