The class is based on the 2019 book, How to Be An Anti-racist, by Ibram Kendi. The book describes a process of developing into a person who does not attribute race for behavior, appearance, economics, etc., but does recognize that race in America has created the attitudes and conditions that create racial differences. In other words, racial assumptions are not the cause of conditions, but the outcome. My methods of presenting and processing information about the material are: discussion, exercises, journaling, homework, readings, experiences, etc. Instructor: Jinny Sullivan

 Over the course of 6 weeks, participants will explore jewelry making, watercolor resist paintings, optical illusion art, bookmaking, expressionist self portraits, and print transfers.

The last of four sessions on the Evolution of Human Consciousness deals with the period of Western history from 1685 to 1815. These few years are seen as representing maturation of Scientific, Philosophical and Political awareness of European Society. The Scientific Revolution will involve such luminaries as Kepler, Newton, and Bacon. Philosophical discourse ranged from the ideas of Descartes to Hume, Diderot and Kant. Political thought was profoundly altered by Locke, Spinoza, Montesquieu and Jefferson. It was an age of these and other intellectual giants who profoundly affected the course of Euro-American evolution over only 130 years. Instructor: Bill Logan, M.D.
