Racism remains one of the most rooted and painful impasses of our time. Why is this so? And what does this have to do with you? In her talk, drawing from her recent publication, Ruth explores an understanding of our individual and collective racial conditioning and its social proliferation, and how mindfulness provides a foundation for inner confidence, stability, and courage, fostering a culture of wise care.

Through reflection and practice, we’ll develop a grounded, practical approach to living this insight in everyday life.
