What is The Growing Edge?

Look well to the growing edge! All around us worlds are dying and new worlds are being born; all around us life is dying and life is being born. The fruit ripens on the tree, the roots are silently at work in the darkness of the earth against a time when there shall be new leaves, fresh blossoms, green fruit. Such is the growing edge! It is the extra breath from the exhausted lung, the one more thing to try when all else has failed, the upward reach of life when weariness closes in upon all endeavor. This is the basis of hope in moments of despair, the incentive to carry on when times are out of joint and men have lost their reason, the source of confidence when worlds crash and dreams whiten into ash. The birth of the child — life’s most dramatic answer to death — this is the growing edge incarnate. Look well to the growing edge! 

— Civil Rights theologian Howard Thurman

Talking about race isn’t easy. We aren’t taught how to do it in school. Many families don’t regularly talk about race at home. And as a nation, we just can’t seem to agree on anything when it comes to race. The Growing Edge is a place where you can begin to rewrite that story. It is an opportunity to change yourself, your loved ones, your community and history.

The Growing Edge is a place of change and growth. It may be exciting or uncomfortable or a little of both. Through education, mentoring, coaching, a lot of love and a little push, we are here to do deep, serious, life changing work. Together, we will increase your ability to talk about race, sharpen your critical analysis of racism and bring more life and meaning into your relationships where race has been a point of division in the past.

We’re here to make a real difference and we know you are too.
We can’t wait to get to know you.
The time is definitely now.
LET’S DO THIS!!!
