How is it to hold space, facilitate, and create community withing a capitalistic system? What forms of resistance can we find while also being able to financially survive? Join Ceci in finding answers to these questions in Intentional Kink Space Facilitation, a 3 hour online workshop and peer support meeting.
Ceci Ferox has a master’s degree in community education, a field of study born from the needs of the unions and leftist civic society in Finland. Ceci’s research and work is based on the pedagogic philosophies of thinkers like Paolo Freire and bell hooks, and their experience in empowering political grass roots movements. They have over 20 years of experience in leading volunteer and non-profit communities, and 12 years of experience specifically in organizing and facilitating kink spaces.
Ceci will guide you through self reflection and group conversations on kink facilitation, and share their knowledge through lecture content. We will explore topics like:
– What are my values and how do they show in my organizing, space holding, and facilitation?
– What’s my mission, what is the change I want to see in individuals and in the world?
– Do I have a teaching philosophy and how do I view learning?
– How do I guide group processes and understand what people need from me? What about power and hierarchies?
– How do I navigate dynamics in the team of organizers or facilitators?
– What are my ethics around space holding and my position of power?
LGBTQIA+ describes the full spectrum of non-mainstream sexual orientation and/or gender identity, meaning: lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer/fluid, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, agender.
Friends describe people of any and all kinds of gender and sexual identities who are aware and respectful of the necessity, needs, and boundaries of a queer space and its marginalized community.
When you consider yourself a friend you show acknowledgement to and are respectful of everyone’s self-expression and do not assume, presume or project non-consensual ideas onto others. You actively request and use people’s chosen pronouns. You remain mindful of the fact that Karada House is first and foremost a space for queer people that you are also invited to attend. You have a genuine concern for the well-being of LGBTQIA+ people and remain in awareness of heterosexual and gender-straight privileges.
Friends don’t have to be perfect. None of us are. We request that we all proactively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.
