Starting a discussion on Making the Invisible Visible

We will start this week reading and talking about the Spirit Rock Publication "making the invisible visible: healing racism in our buddhist communities" found here :

http://www.spiritrock.org/download/Making%20the%20Invisible%20Visible.pdf

Specifically this week we will be starting with the personal essay, found in Section Two in the above link, titled:

Reflections on the Five Precepts and Diversity by Sharon Smith.

(fyi: the reading is short, so I will be reading ouloud the section about the first precept in class from the above essay, and in following classes we will be discussing the other precepts, with time permitting).
