Community Open Circle
11:30 a.m. – Healing Altar – inside Library
12:30 p.m. – Open Circle – courtyard outside Library
All are welcome to this event, where members of campus affinity groups will co-facilitate an open discussion on ways that we can support and heal each other, in the aftermath of mass shootings and other violence affecting our communities – and to identify ways of moving forward in unity, safety and solidarity.
This event will incorporate the previous Healing Circle event that was rescheduled from March 14: Members of the campus community are invited to bring items for a collective healing altar in remembrance of those who were lost to violence or mass shootings this year – including Tyre Nichols and those killed in Monterey Park, Half Moon Bay and Oakland, California, as well as those who died in the Uvalde school shooting in 2022 and the Atlanta spa shooting in 2021.

Participants may bring photos, news clippings, nonperishable foods or wrapped candies, flowers or other items signifying victims of violence that you don't mind sharing in a public display. Organizers say they hope to unify around healing the trauma inflicted on Black, Latinx and Asian communities in America.

The altar will remain on display through winter quarter, in the area across from the main circulation desk inside the Library
