They will also explore themes of Blackness, gender, and sexuality within Dharma practice and communities.  Engaging the work of Black Buddhist teachers, they will together examine the distinct contributions of contemporary writers, as well as luminaries such as James Baldwin and Audre Lorde, whose essays clarify historical teachings on suffering, impermanence, compassion, and sensuality.

This program is offered from the Thích Nhất Hạnh Program for Engaged Buddhism.
