Myth America

When

to

Program

Our goal is to deepen our understanding of the myriad ways the Racist Patriarchy has perpetuated divisions among us. More importantly, we seek to answer for ourselves, what can I do to act in a clearly more equitable and just way of life in the way that I think and live individually, in my community, and in America?
