Being mixed race is a unique experience which can lead to a rich understanding of race, culture, identity and belonging. This reflective session creates the space to connect with other mixed race people and to share thoughts, feelings and experiences on a range of issues.

The reflective session will follow the themes and discussion raised by its participants, however some example topics we may want to talk about are;

- How you see yourself, how society sees you
- How it feels and what it means to be mixed race
- Labels, which hat fits? Black/Asian/White/Bi-racial/Mixed heritage
- Half and half or whole
- Caught inbetween; family, race and culture
- Belonging; the same but different/Different but the same
- Racism and internalised racism
- Good enough? Compensating for not being white enough/black enough
- Physical appearance, Beauty, Hair, Make up
- Confidence, self esteem, knowing who I am

The session will provide an opportunity for you to explore and share experiences in a therapeutic group setting with others who can more readily relate to your experiences.

The meetup will be facilitated by Beth Collier who is a mixed raced psychotherapist (see www.centreforemotionalhealth.com)

The session will be held in central London on Monday 30th January from 7.00pm-8.45pm.
