MFR Patio
The women of MFR patio have developed a mission statement and objectives
for MFR patio.
However, we want to make sure that we are listening & acting in such a way
that the WOC space wants & needs.
With this in mind, I am reaching out to WOC to ask if they would be willing to
review the Mission statement & objectives from MFR patio
& provide feedback.
We do not want to develop this space based on what we think the WOC
space needs, we want to develop it based on what YOU want & need.
If you are not able to review & provide feedback, would you share the
information with other WOC to see if any WOC would be willing to review &
offer suggestions? Thank you so much! And of course, I respect that "no" is a
complete sentence. Have a magical day, Sisters.
This is an ask of the MFR Women of Color.
Would you be willing to review and provide feedback on MFR Patio mission
statement & objectives?
Thank you for your consideration.

Hello FRamily.
I have an ask....for the Womyn of Color in this group....
Last year, there were some racist acts that happened around the MFR WOC space.
I am sure it was not the first time racist acts have happened at Michigan FRamily Reunion.
I am sure it has happened in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2021.
I am sorry for this.
Fortunately, Goddess sent us a WOC facilitator and a year (of Dragyns) of openness & bravery and several WOC stepped up and told their story of their experience of racism at MFR.
Thank you for your bravery.
As a response, several women created the MFR Patio space.

There is now a Facebook group "MFR Patio".

color: If you are interested in joining this discussion & program development,

I have been told there is an MFR WOC facebook group too (please ask Journee about this!

The MFR Patio was created in response to the need to
1. protect WOC space at MFR from racist/privileged acts,
2. Discuss racism, privilege, implicit bias,
3. Educate ourselves,
4. Interrupt racist acts.
