THE BLACK SECULAR EXPERIENCE.
WHO IS THIS FOR? This meeting is specifically and exclusively for melanin-enriched human beings (Black People) Foundation of Black Americans and those across the African Diaspora.
OUR MISSION To provide a safe space to discuss recovery openly and freely—without fear of censorship, tone-policing, code switching, making others "feel offended" or uncomfortable. While we function under LifeRing guidelines, we have full autonomy to tackle topics, subjects, and traumas specific to the Black experience.
OPEN CAMERA Cameras are required during introductions.
SERVICE OPPORTUNITY We are actively looking for members willing to provide service and help run this meeting. If you are interested in being a part of this foundational team, please reach out.
A NOTE TO ALLIES If you are not a Foundational Black American or of the African Diaspora, we ask that you be an ally to our need for this affinity space and attend another meeting. Thank you for your support and understanding.
