The Conversation Starts Here

Our Philosophy

Modeled after the Caucus and Affinity Group Model, our lectures and workshops share one common goal: to emphasize the importance of white people processing race, privilege, and oppression with other white people. 

Too often, white people wait to talk about race until they enter an interracial space, unfairly shifting the burden onto people of color. But people of color arrive at interracial dialogues with a much deeper understanding of racial dynamics and racism that white people won’t ever be able to attain. 

Simply put, it doesn’t make sense for people of color to slow down their fight for social justice to accommodate white people—it’s on us to catch up. That’s where we come in. 

Her Flowers gives white people the resources they need to be productive in conversations surrounding race and privilege; to understand systemic oppression and their role within an inherently racist social structure; and, ultimately, to enact meaningful social change in their communities.  

These are urgent, difficult conversations; missteps are inevitable. Feelings of discomfort are completely normal when discussing issues like race, power, privilege, and oppression. We do everything we can to create open, welcoming, safe spaces—somewhere you can make mistakes, process complex problems, and grow as a person. 

We invite you to join us; to take the time to reflect on your own privilege, slowly work through and understand nuanced social issues, and build the foundation you need for a lifetime of social justice work. 

It’s an everyday fight—but it’s always easier when you have community by your side. Your journey towards better allyship starts here.
