About this Event

Change for the Better is returning as a monthly tea and discussion group designed for individuals committed to the liberation of the Earth and all people. The intentions of this discussion group are to dispel fear about change and embrace new beginnings. Enjoy locally grown herbs and refreshments with deep discussion about how to free ourselves and the Earth from hate and oppression.

Each gathering we pour the tea, examine history, and leave with a road map for achieving inner and world peace.



Change for the Better tea and discussion group agenda:

11:00 - 11:30AM Participant arrival

Guests are encouraged to arrive during this time window. Participants will be invited to hang their coats, write name tags, and have initial refreshments to satisfy their appetites.

11:30 - 2:30PM Tea and discussion

Participants will be given discussion packets to engage with their tablemates. Reading passages can include selections from the following literary pieces: ONENESS vs. the 1%, A Voice That Could Stir An Army: Fannie Lou Hamer and the Rhetoric of the Black Freedom Movement, In the Shadow of Slavery, Small is Beautiful: Economics as if People Mattered, Great Speeches by Native Americans, Native New Yorkers: The Legacy of the Algonquin People of New York and more .

Participants will be invited to share their table's discussion points with the entire tea party.

2:30 - 3:00PM Exit ticket and goodbyes
