Welcome to T.R.I.B.E

The T.R.I.B.E. Pledge

As a member of TRIBE, I pledge to open myself to new ways of thinking, to try things I’ve never done before even in the face of fear, to know that I am MORE than good enough, to understand that life is about what I can do for myself, and what I can do to help others and that life means seeing things different, making good out of what I have and being whatever I want.

Know Thyself

Know Thyself consists of a set of tools, which protect against the challenges of racism, trauma, and prevention of opportunity resulting from institutional bias. These tools empower the individual/group to look deep inside for the power to act beyond the forces they face.

We walk through the exploration of identity, how we became, who we THINK we are, understanding the power of language, examining personal points of view, what is truth, concentration, meditation, habits of successful people and creating the future.
