Yoga Activism Book Club
We hope the book club is a space where we can all learn from each other and feel nourished by the experience. That’s why we’ve created these comfort agreements:
* Keep in mind ahimsa – taking care of each other and ourselves
* Make space for learning – offer grace to ourselves and one another for mistakes
* Speak from your own experience
* Assume positive intent
* Respect people’s lived experiences and identities – we encourage participants to add their pronouns next to their name on Zoom if they feel comfortable sharing.
*Commit to learning and using inclusive language whilst respecting potential differences in language usage across countries / cultures / and within communities themselves
* Strive to be courageous and kind
in raising awareness of language and behaviours reflecting racist, ableist, sexist, fatphobic, homophobic, and transphobic views (or any other form of oppression)
* Be willing to listen to people offering course corrections and apologise for harm
