The Blind Spot: Promoting Dialogue Around Race, Privilege and Identity

Founder Russell G. Jones
Dr. Anne Klaeysen, Leader Presides
What will it take to make the NY Society a more multi-racial community? Here’s a way we can start. The Blind Spot is committed to making the language and critical thinking skills around privilege, race and oppression more commonplace. Participants engage in workshops using multiple media with the purpose of helping them act accountable for these issues. It isn’t about shining a harsh light on guilt, privilege or inequities; it uses positive content and ideas to illustrate the debates and discussions that are constantly happening around us. The goal is to grow in our understanding of these issues both intellectually and emotionally.
Society members will be invited to participate in The Blind Spot series hosted by NYSEC and guided by Russell G. Jones at 1:30pm on third Sundays: September 20, October 18, November 15 and December 20.
Russell G. Jones is a national known actor, director and collaborator. He has created memorable characters in theater, and on film and television and has been a proud member of Labyrinth Theatre Company since 1995 (www.russellgjones.com).
