Our vision:
Liberation.
A world free of white supremacy, caste, patriarchy, misogyny, all the isms, all the phobias and hate. A world where all of us human beings have value, dignity, respect and all we need to live how we choose.
Our Mission
Initiating radically honest conversations that enable each of us to acknowledge, understand, and take personal responsibility for stopping the harm done to ourselves — and to each other. Conversations that acknowledge how we are complicit in creating, enabling and engaging in oppression. Conversations that can lead to liberation for all of us. In a white supremacy culture, those conversations necessarily center on the dismantling of whiteness and white supremacy.
Our Core Values
radical honesty: We practice revolutionary, uncompromising truth-telling. transparency: We are open about our successes and our failures, our ah-ha and our uh-oh moments, our “I understands” and our “I still don’t get its.” relationship: We believe in the humanity of all people and we endeavor to genuinely understand the underlying meaning of others’ thoughts and actions. We engage fully and openly, building bonds and creating strong foundations. accountability: We make mistakes. We reject guilt and shame and endeavor to walk with people from mistake through reconciliation. authenticity: We value our differences and vow to always show up as our true selves. We are genuine, living in our truest form, and we communicate openly to strip down the layers and build strong trusting relationships. transformation: We reject the lies of white supremacy culture and we work towards being the fully liberated people that we are meant to be. ownership: We take responsibility for our thoughts and our actions - as well as our personal transformation. humility: We know that we do not have all the answers. We remain open to learning (from others and from our mistakes), being corrected, and moving forward with grace. trust: We build trust through being trustworthy, and by radically honest candid discussions. integrity: We strive to do the right thing always. We act truthfully and honorably, we are unafraid of being true to self. And, we do it even when no one is watching.

MISSION
There is no better place for honest conversation than at the dinner table. After three years, we can safely say that breaking bread together helps to facilitate conversations around white supremacy, racism and xenophobia.

We want people to, No. 1, call a thing a thing. Quit pretending like you don’t see shit, and start using your voice and your power to make change. What’s the worst thing that’s gonna happen to you? If you see a white person saying something derogatory or doing something derogatory, and you interrupt it, what’s the worst thing that’s going to happen to you? I mean, really think about it.
