The Focus for this Seasonal Reach-In/Teach-in:
We will be highlighting how "Pat Is Back" teach-ins keep reminding us to use practices of regular breathing and meditation to support our energy. We need support to study, reflect and act to face fascism now!
We will hear from a regular members Dominique H and Gabby Cuesta about Pat who challenged workers to see the power we have to fight fascism.
A Vermont Book Study group will share about Lessons From The Damned, Class Struggle in the Black Community, a book Pat edited. One of the intergenerational members will share their story through Playback Theater, Conducted by Lorraine LaPrade and Acted by Lupe Family.
Gabby Cuesta will also read from Lupe Family's novel To Face It, which features a character named Pam based on the real life Pat, that describes how as a black radical therapist she was "different from most traditional therapists."
PS. Find out how you can get started with joining our ongoing multiracial monthly Book Salon. It's a conference call (NOT ZOOM) focusing on history, etc from the Novel To Face It, by Lupe Family!
Reflections from past PAT IS BACK audience...
"Pat is Back is a Teach-In that is a great way to get to learn about this radical thinker and experience her techniques and practices and how you can apply it to your life especially in these tumultuous times!" A Black participant
"Political growth is hard to do alone, maybe even impossible...I think that's why we come together to Pat Is Back." A Latin participant
"I was pretty confused at first mainly because I haven't read the book (Lessons about Lessons From The Damned, Class Struggle in the Black Community, a book Pat edited) that's discussed or know who Pat is, however as the meeting went on I understood enough to get that there is a necessity for more awareness and action towards racial/social justice." A white participant
