GA – Atlanta
In early 2016 Kelly Lyn and Chuck Cogliandro were seeking new communities that were committed to healing from the effects of racism and the legacies of slavery in the U.S, both in order to learn and to offer the ancestral healing in which they are trained. An email from Beacon Press, publisher of Sharon Morgan and Tom DeWolf’s book, Gather At the Table, included an interview with Sharon and her mentioning the organization Coming to the Table. After email exchanges with Sharon and learning that CTTT’s bi-annual national conference was starting in two weeks, Kelly and Chuck decided to attend, as it was on the way to their summer vacation driving to Maine and Newfoundland to visit friends.
After returning to Atlanta Kelly and Chuck realized they had talked about the power of the community and the conference throughout their trip, and they wanted to establish a local CTTT group in Atlanta. With two African-American friends, Wilma Pollard and Natalie Grubbs, joining as co-facilitators, and the historic Atlanta Baha’i Center agreeing to rent us space, we held our first gathering of about twenty people in December, 2016.
As of March 2020, CTTT Atlanta is meeting online via Zoom link. Our current leadership team includes Cathy Tyler, Mike Harris, Kelly Lyn and Chuck Cogliandro. Monthly gatherings, typically on second Monday of each month, now include an opening ritual and a circle process with a topic that addresses one of the four CTTT pillars: Facing History, Making Connections, Healing Wounds, or Taking Action.
You can join our Facebook Group at “Coming to the Table- Atlanta” for dates of our monthly meetings, and announcements of other events.
