There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu
*********************************
Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) staff and faculty are invited to join or drop-in for an empowering 90-minute lunchtime virtual SIT. This will be a safe, meditative space for connecting in solidarity. Designed for our well-being, we will relinquish customary fatigue, hypervigilance, and internalized subjugation (which results from constant producing, making, accomplishing, serving and/or doing). Instead, we will engage in radical acts of stillness, meditation, conscious awareness, interconnectedness, self-care, self-compassion, and care of one another.
Facilitator/Session Leader: angel Kyodo williams is a writer, activist, ordained Zen priest and the author of Being Black: Zen and the Art of Living with Fearlessness and Grace (Viking Press 2000), and co-author of Radical Dharma: Talking Race, Love, and Liberation (North Atlantic Books).
