The People's Seminar

A Space For Deep Communal Learning

I built the room I wish someone had built for me.

The People's Seminar is where I bring my sociology background out of the classroom and into conversations with community. No syllabus jargon or reading in isolation. The reading, the reasoning, and you.

Two ways to join

Both are small on purpose.

Six-Week Seminar

Black Women on Social Problems

The course I've taught in a university classroom, brought to a room that's for us. Six weeks on the systems shaping our lives: white supremacy, anti-Blackness, patriarchy, capitalism, and heteronormativity.

Sept 27 – Nov 1 10AM–Noon ET $40

Monthly Book Club

Black Women & Relationships

These are the books I'm already reading for my own research on Black women's mental health and relationships. This session, I'm opening that reading up to a small group instead of doing it alone.

TBA Oct–Dec $15

Sociologist & Facilitator

I spent years in a PhD program studying ethnoracial identity, discrimination, and wellbeing, and I learned early that the classroom is one of the few places people actually get language for what they've already lived. I'm a first-generation college graduate, so I know what it means to sit in a room and finally hear someone name something you'd only ever felt. Let's sit in that together, outside the ivory tower.

This room isn't just mine.

If you've got a skill or expertise you've been wanting to teach and you're looking for a space to actually do it, this can be that space. Email me and let's work something out.

Want to know when the next one opens?

Spots are small and they'll go fast. Get on the list, and I'll email you directly.
