Organizations Filed Purposes:
PROJECT PILGRIMAGE IS COMMITTED TO MOBILIZING ALL PEOPLE TO BECOME EVERYDAY ACTIVISTS BY TAKING COURAGEOUS ACTION AGAINST INJUSTICE AND CONFRONTING OUR LEGACY OF RACISM THROUGH SHARED IMMERSIVE LEARNING EXPERIENCES.
PILGRIMAGE PROGRAM: WE BRING INTERRACIAL AND INTERGENERATIONAL GROUPS OF APPROXIMATELY 25-35 PEOPLE TOGETHER TO BUILD COMMUNITY AND THEN TRAVEL TO THE AMERICAN SOUTH, WHERE WE STUDY THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT AND OTHER SOCIAL JUSTICE MOVEMENTS. WE VISIT HISTORICAL AND IMPORTANT SITES IN THIS IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE.IN ADDITION, WE ARE PROUD TO PARTNER WITH VARIOUS COMPANIES, ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS, AND ORGANIZATIONS TO OFFER A SERIES OF UNIQUE WORKSHOPS INTENDED TO INCREASE AWARENESS OF HISTORICAL EVENTS THAT HAVE DEFINED AND PERPETUATED SYSTEMIC RACISM IN THE UNITED STATES. WE OFFER VIRTUAL PILGRIMAGES TO LOCATIONS WHICH CREATE HISTORICAL CONTEXT, PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR PARTICIPANTS TO SELF-REFLECT AND DIALOGUE, AND EXPLORE IDEAS ON HOW TO TAKE ACTION AND MAKE MEANINGFUL CONTRIBUTIONS.
COMMUNITY EVENTS : COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES ARE OFFERED TO THE FULL PROJECT PILGRIMAGE ALUMNI BASE, AS WELL AS EVENTS THAT ARE OPEN TO THE BROADER COMMUNITY IN THE SEATTLE AREA. THIS PAST YEAR, PROJECT PILGRIMAGE COLLABORATED ON A COMMUNITY EVENT WITH TOWN HALL OF SEATTLE, THE OFFICE OF ARTS AND CULTURE, LOCAL COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND PROJECT PILGRIMAGE ALUMNI TO BRING AUTHOR, ACTIVIST AND EDUCATOR MICHAEL "QUESS" MOORE TO SPEAK TO A PACKED HOUSE OF 400 PEOPLE. PROJECT PILGRIMAGE ALSO HELD AN EVENT IN COLLABORATION WITH WASHINGTON HALL TO LEARN HOW TO INTERRUPT RACISM IN REAL LIFE EVENTS, THROUGH THE PRACTICE OF THEATRE OF THE OPPRESSED. APPROXIMATELY 150 PEOPLE WERE IN ATTENDANCE. WE ALSO HOSTED A BOOK READING FOR OUR PILGRIMAGE HISTORIAN, DR. TERRY SCOTT, WHO'S BOOK EXPLORES ACTIVISM AND ATHLETICS IN THE SEATTLE REGION. BASKETBALL STAR, LENNY WILKINS WAS IN ATTENDANCE AND FEATURED AT THIS EVENT.
BREAKING BREAD: PROJECT PILGRIMAGE LAUNCHED OUR FIRST SERIES OF BREAKING BREAD DINNERS HOSTED BY INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY AT THEIR OWN HOMES.
