SUMMARY:BIPOC Book Study Class
DESCRIPTION:On November 5\, join us for a conversation\, facilitated by Ayo Yetunde\, about the book Black and Buddhist: What Buddhism Can Teach Us about Race\, Resilience\, Transformation\, and Freedom. Ayo co-edited this informative and inspiring book. This conversation will be exclusively for members of the BIPOC community. If you or anyone you know in the BIPOC community would like to participate in this conversation\, contact Larry to get a free copy of the book. \n\n\n\nWho\, but ourselves\, defines what and who we are as “people of color” or as psychotherapist Resmaa Menakem says “people of culture”?  Does a contemplative ethos and lifestyle fit with the image of the variegated “people of color and culture” in the U.S.?  Is there a tension between our acts for collective survival and the desire for peace of mind and body?  In conversation with pastoral counselor and Black and Buddhist co-editor\, Pamela Ayo Yetunde\, we will talk about building BIPOC meditation community. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPamela Ayo Yetunde\, J.D.\, Th.D. is a pastoral counselor\, Community Dharma Leader\, and the author of several books and articles.  She is the co-editor of the Nautilus Book Award-winning Black and Buddhist: What Buddhism Can Teach Us About Race\, Resilience\, Transformation and Freedom  and the Frederick J. Streng Award-winning book Buddhist-Christian Dialogue\, U.S. Law\, and Womanist Theology for Transgender Spiritual Care.  Ayo’s next book\, Casting Indra’s Net: Fostering Spiritual Kinship and Community will be published in February. Ayo is also an associate editor for Lion’s Roar where she has conducted several podcast interviews https://www.lionsroar.com/podcast/.  Ayo currently resides in Chicago.
