Get ready … we are hosting an open house LIVE event within our Mighty Networks Online Community!
Saturday, January 1st, 2022
1:00 pm CDT
Meet our founder, Sami Aaron, and learn all the tips and tricks to being part of our new online community, hosted through Mighty Networks. Start your New Year off with knowing you are not alone in your concerns for an environmentally sound future.
You’ll have the opportunity to chat and ask questions about the online platform and learn just how you can get the most from our content and members.
We welcome anyone whose heart and mind are shifting towards a deeper understanding of our changing climate and the social injustices that accompany that change. We invite those who feel that they would benefit from connecting with a like-minded community that offers support and guidance to resilience in a way that is uplifting, pragmatic, and visionary.
The Resilient Activist (TRA) hosts this online discussion community that consists primarily of discussion on topics related to resilience, meditation, eco-distress, Earth-Care, and Self-Care. We also host live events, supportive group gatherings, and courses and we expect this site will evolve over time in response to the needs of the members.
Full membership access is free, and donations are gratefully accepted. You are enthusiastically welcome whether or not you contribute financially. As we add new groups, events, and courses, there may be fees charged for those new programs, but fees will always be based on a sliding scale in order to keep our services accessible to all.
The Resilient Activist JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion) Book Club
Are you interested in learning more about justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) in America with a group of like-minded and open-hearted people?
Do you enjoy reading and discussing books that expand your understanding of yourself and the world?
If these questions touch a chord, then The Resilient Activist JEDI Book Club is for you!
The March JEDI Book Club will be Tuesday, March 15th at 7:30 pm CDT. We will be reading How the Word is Passed, A Reckoning with the History of Slavery Across America by Clint Smith.
This is a powerful and important book – I don’t know anyone who has read it that hasn’t been changed by it. The publisher, Little Brown and Company. has a great summary of the book – here is an excerpt: “Beginning in his hometown of New Orleans, Clint Smith leads the reader on an unforgettable tour of monuments and landmarks—those that are honest about the past and those that are not—that offer an intergenerational story of how slavery has been central in shaping our nation’s collective history, and ourselves.”

Please feel welcome to attend, even if you missed earlier meetings. This is an open group, and we understand that our lives are busy and not everyone will be able to attend each month!
The JEDI Book Club is facilitated by Resilient Activists Brenda Bennett-Pike and Anne Melia. We hope you will join us!
