One moment please...

Roots Deeper Than Whiteness is a foundational course from White Awake that is designed to help white people reject the role we have been groomed to play in society at large and build a healthy sense of self that is rooted in liberatory knowledge and practice.

  • Sliding scale registration fee: $50-$250

Registration Form

We encourage you to participate in the series with a friend or as part of a group, if at all possible. Participating with others enriches the experience, and grounds your process in local community and/or relationships you already have. Please note that, even when participating as part of a group, each person needs to register independently for the series.

Payment Options

We hope you will pay the full fee if you are able to ($50-$250, at your discretion). If you can pay full price and make an extra donation to White Awake, great! These donations help White Awake fulfill its mission and goals. If you would like to make a sustaining, monthly donation to White Awake, you can do that here.

If you cannot pay the full fee, no worries! No one is turned away for lack of funds.

Use the box to write in whatever amount you are able to pay. If you need a full scholarship, simply enter "0" into the custom field.

Regardless of what you pay, please help us cover our credit card processing fees by clicking the "Add 3%" box at the bottom of this form! Thank you. :)

Attending Live Sessions: Zoom registration & Ground Rules

Completing and submitting this form registers you for the series, however in order to attend live sessions you will need to register separately with Zoom (the video conferencing platform we use for the series). We apologize for the extra step, but until Zoom expands its webinar features, we all have to do a little extra work so that we can access online break out rooms (which create a more intimate, interactive experience) while still ensuring that you have a secure container for the training.

You will receive a link to register for a Zoom login in your confirmation email for the series.

Before registering with Zoom, we ask that you agree to our ground rules for live session participation. These ground rules are designed to protect the ability of everyone who participates to do the work of the training, per the guidance of the facilitators.

As explained in the ground rules, Roots Deeper Than Whiteness is a white caucus space. If you'd like to read more about racial caucusing, and why this is helpful, we suggest looking over this resource by Ruth King (author of Mindful of Race). If you have additional questions, please reach out: info@whiteawake.org
