And all along the way, I\u2019ve heard from folks wishing to gather with others who share an anti-racialization orientation. This is an invitation to such a gathering.<\/p>\n<p>If, despite being told and trained and pressured to embrace and perform a sense of identity that represents a false construct of human differences, you defy racial reduction and seek the company of others who resist racialization, please contact me.
